Weather you go cold turkey or tapering its worth it whatever works for you , i quit drink and cocaine addictions after becoming a born again christain, backslid, quit again but got hooked on valium and xanax, clean now thanks be to Jesus Christ.
Wow, severe dependence after that short amount of time and dose is very rare. I could imagine some dependency, but many people like you are very sensitive to meds so I can understand how it was tough for you. 2mg of diazepam would hardly put my cat to sleep TBH. The standard dose for anxiety in the US is 10mg and can be taken multiple times during the day. I'm not saying that is wise, but it's just a comparison to show how sensitive you were to this med. Thank goodness you didn't take more than that! I'm tapering off benzos, switched from Ativan to Diazepam 9mg and I'm down to 1mg in 7 weeks without much issue. Just shows how different everyone is when it comes to these meds.
I've just stumbled across your video. I'm down in Hobart Tasmania. I'm day 37 off valium now and I just feel awful. How do you feel now? Please tell me this ends 🙏
Been on a high dose prescribed by an irresponsible dr 12 years ago. Took the poison daily he never told me they're not meant for long term use, especially daily. Tapered to 10mg from over 20mg earlier in the year. Still have 10mg to go and feel exhausted all the time. Pretty fucked.
Keep fighting mate it’s a everyday battle you could be 10 years clean but you’ll always have the devil whispering in your ear I’m battling fentanyl addiction rn so I can kinda relate with the withdrawal sickness and anyone that makes it through there addiction and battle through the withdrawals I give you my most respect ✊
Taking any psych meds at all now or found any alternative meds that help u atm? How are you getting this robust version of yourself? Where's all this energy coming from since your not exercising even.. energy flowing from daughter? Sounds like home life could be therapeutic for u. Perhaps I overlooked sth in the vid.
Have you tried tumeric for pain? It’s helped me a lot. Proud of you my friend! I’ll be a year ctd September 11 can’t wait for sleep & to not be blunted
Congrats I still take Valium for pain and autism. It's good for getting off stronger benzo's. Ssri's and benzo's are for sever symptoms. They should be at least.
Tbe guy is doing great awsome now.... Just goes to show ya things do get better.... we need time and remember it is all temporary it will pass We just need to band together and help each other
I’m attempting to come off them now. My doctor gave me them at 17 for my condition but I had a stroke so trying to get off of them now and it’s horrific. I should be in uni! Good luck and stay strong to anyone going through this.
Nothing worse than benzo withdrawal. So good you were able to taper slow. Problem is they work so well and take away anxiety! Nice until they take you off. I'm still tapering and always afraid my Dr will force me to quit! You come across well. But often its just so hard when you are off your benzos anxiety comes back 10 times worse.
I'm 10 months off but one stubborn t strange symptoms still bothering me like I have hollow head and body. And I don't feel my body weight....like no sensation of internal organs.....any body have this symtoms? Curious to know
@@freeflow1402 did u feel a flat feeling in ur withdrawal please ans my frd 269days sober need ur ans frd feel like empty shell please ans my frd need ur ans
it would be nice if every dr would give the liquid out to come of as iv never ever met one sadly my friend., now there true panic atacks not the rushis when ppl say 'Oh i had a panic attack, a true paic attak is when your head is spinning so fast n u cant even go into your house n u just have to keep walking mate eh haha There fucked, been getting them now of benzos n living like this for 30 years
Then you had quite an extreme reaction to Valium and had quite some underlying issues. Valium is not that strong actually. Anyway good that you came of it.
I had no underlying issues before these drugs just a stressful work environment. Benzos are directly responsible for the damage to my body, nothing else.
Hi, Thank you for your videos I am 1yr off .25 daily use of xanax, then klonopin,,,after 4yrs daily use at bed time I cant believe the physical stuff is getting worse at 1yr horrible face and neck tension horrible head and abdomen tension, pressure, feel like I cant breathe body pulling, tightness and off balance feeling The mental stuff, mostly DR is not as bad as the physical, its like my whole body is tensing up all over I am lucky I can drive and go to the store, but I feel like I cam going to explode and crawl out of my skin I am a shell of my old self How where you at 1yr off? does this sound right? I need some hope, I am scared why this far out my body is doing this Ty for your time

Wow. I'm on 2.5mg. I didn't think 2mg could cause that much of an issue. How long were you taking 2mg?
It's taken me over 2yrs to taper from 2.5mg. Builds up in the system.
I am now exactly at 4,5 months off ...same feelings.... exhaustion is bad....
Have you tried tumeric for pain? It’s helped me a lot. Proud of you my friend! I’ll be a year ctd September 11 can’t wait for sleep & to not be blunted
Turmeric definitely psychoactive - not recommended
well done buddy

I think you should listen to a doctor most of the time.

Are you Allright now?
You are a hero! Terrible terrible these drugs to come off🌹
Appreciate you sharing dude anxiety and panic attacks palpitations etc is real and hard to overcome I know all too well always helps to hear others have battled through this thanks again
You are so lucky ,,being able to wean down. Anyway good look , and well done...
when illegal drugs are better for you than legal ones.. Magic mushrooms as an example..
Heroin helped me coming off the benzos, no joke. Not recommended, but from my experience I can say, even opiates are better than this shit.
Is there any way I can contact you?
Good day mate. Good luck!
Congrats on your journey! How have you been now?
