You’re are truly a God sent , I’m tapering off my meds right now and, I don’t know what tomorrow may bring but I’m going to have faith in God please pray for me
I bought Arnold’s latest book and watched his documentary. Whoever you are, there is something that you can take away from what he says! I find it very inspiring and encouraging. I am 75 … 5 months free of antidepressants. Lots of challenges, some tougher than others but I’m battleing on. Thankyou Michael 🙏🏼
Thank you so much! I am currently tapering of Xanax after 8 yrs. I am pushing thru this and I have a reminder on my wall "I can do this!" You are correct on this upload. Thank you again.
Yes, you can do this! Keep that attitude, you can! Congrats on the progress to this point. Stay encouraged, stay tough, keep feeding your heart and mind positivity!
Thanks so much Michael, not becoming a victim is so important! I am finding acceptance of what is, is really helpful, it doesn't mean liking what we're dealing with but we're accepting the challenge 🥊🤣 and freeing our energy up to deal productively with what we're facing. Well wishes, strength and may God bless us all 💞
Thanks for the great comments, Kelly. You have shown great strength throughout your journey, and have come such a long way. Keep going. May God give you the strength to walk through any current challenges and continue to provide you with His healing presence!
So glad you enjoyed it. Yes the documentary was good, and the book is called "Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story by Arnold Schwarzenegger if anyone is interested!
Can benzo withdrawal alter the state of mind? I am almost 4 months off xanax. I experience weird thought that nothing is real, myself, my surroundings and people also, I am not a real person, this not the real place i should be in, this is all fake. This thought and feeling is so strong that whatever I do to focus on present, seems all useless, it seems that I am just passing time living in fake reality. I am really scared, how to pass a day with this feeling of unreality? Did you experience these things during your withdrawal?
It's ok not to become a victim but when suffering is so much, you can't focus elsewhere. Now almost 4 months after coming off benzo ( was on a low dose of xanax for 18 months), my symptoms are changing every day. Somedays head pressure is so intense with a feeling like it is squeezed terribly. It it common to feel this way? My already blurry vision is more distorted, and I can't focus on objects clearly, all these symptoms were not that severe in 1 and 2 months after coming off. Is this also common? Why my symptoms are intensifying day by day?
Thanks for this video Michael. I am going on 10 months off benzos. The line between my preexisting anxiety/depression and the withdrawal have gotten really blurry. I’m starting to really understand what i went through in retrospect.
This is progress. You are making great progress, getting to a place where you can work more and more on natural wellness rather than just surviving withdrawal symptoms. Keep going. Get determined to learn more about improving anxiety/depression in a natural way. You are in a good spot to make a lot of progress over the next 10 months!

Can you talk about emotional blunting/numbness as a result of ssri withdrawal/cold turkey? Would appreciate any input from your side 🙏🍀
I have numbness as well.
Thankyou Michael ❤🙏
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed!
How do we call attention to this benzo issue?!!! Those suffering need help!!!
I'll keep making videos and doing what I do!
