Mr. Patrick. Where did you start? To cut 10% is not really much and your withdrawal symptoms are what they are. There is nothing you can do about them and I believe in you. I believe you as well. I had so many people telling me what I should be doing who have never withdrawn off of anything. Thank you for your update. As of tomorrow I am one year off of valium after being on it 15 to 20 straight years up to 30 ml a day. I feel pretty good and miles away from what I felt like a year ago. I am dealing with tiredness not exhaustion but tiredness of the highest order. it is truly a bitch but I drove 3 hours today. For that I am grateful and thankful. Jim

@@SalwaSamra sorry I was on Xanax and valium for a couple of years I new very little about the addiction implications and decided to come off them only to discover I'd trapped myself in hell by taking 10 per day and had two weeks of thinking I would die before I actually got help thankfully I was put back on 20mg per day and dropped 2 mg every 2 weeks until I got down to 10mg ,then I dropped 1mg per 2 weeks until I was able to stop taking them at 0.5 mg and then I was able to quit it's the worst experience of my life apart from the reason I began in the first place which was due to losing my mother the worst part of this being able to feel the emotional trauma of this experience after my detox wouldn't wish it on anybody

I really just feel like I'm coming down with flu, but I'm not. I'll probably hold here for a month. 🤞🏽

Were you ever prescribed the propanolol? Try not to check your vitals, you’re young and you’ll be fine. I’m 71 and tapered off 25 years of 3 mgs. per day Xanax. Everyone is different but checking my vitals on a regular basis would have made the process so much worse.

Hi patrik. I would hold the dose for atleast 4 weeks and maybe next dose reduction could be half the one you just did? Either way its up to you to decide whats best for you. We support you regardless, stay strong and remember you are now one step closer to being off. All the best from me in northeren europe.

While I’m no doctor I can say with 100% certainty a TON of us are suffering due to benzos. Best thing is get checked by a doctor, once you’re cleared then it’s almost certainly just the benzos. The levels of horror I’ve experienced due to them are far worse than anything I could’ve ever even imagined existed. You are NOT alone! We will heal one time! Just take it day by day and have the comfort of knowing how many before us have healed from this. Prayers for you!

Memory is bad. Having a brain MRI in the morning... cognitive issues, lights, no taste, smell is almost gone....a lot more but yea. I'm 61 now & can't drive cuz of the vertigo. Ain't gonna lie...weed is what helped. And CBD. It's possible I've had a stroke too. Guess I'll find out soon. One day at a time!! ✊ Prayers 🙏🫂😓
