My mental symptoms are so bad today they are almost intolerable. Doom/gloom, fear, dread, anxiety. Also feel so sick from the anxiety plus I may have the flu. not even sure about anything right now.

Did Super rapid taper from 1.25 klonopin to zero in about 1 month. Benzo free 4-27-2010. Still very symptomatic at 32 months out.

I hope this is over in the near future. At least need some windows for reassurance. Its been 6 months since I went into this bad wave and its only got worse and worse.

“I know my brain is not so special that it will not heal. I know it will.” Quote from Dr. Jen. I thought I would be the only one that wouldn’t heal also. We do Hope. Just a bad wave. I had windows for 2 years and now there fading. I just figure I’m healing more. Everyone heals. Like she said we’re not so special that we won’t. Linder xo

I never in a million years would have imagined having to re live some of these symptoms again. I’ve read about it all along, but never thought it would happen to me. Sure did. I am back to being extremely sensitive to stress, and just “sick” from the anxiety and doom/gloom. I know I will get better once again. I just hope this doesn’t drag on for another year or two. I’ve missed out on enough life as it is.

Hey help123. No I am not tapering. I did a rapid taper off 8mg of Klonopin in 8 weeks in Feb and March of 2011. So i am at 20 months off right now. Just hit a rough spot due to some virus bug I got. Sorry your in such a terrible place this far out. I know how you feel. Coming off that high a dose in such a short time has been hard ride at times. I hope your feeling better today and hang tough!

Started .5 MG of Klonopin Twice Daily in September of 2007.
Dosage increaded to .5 MG of Klonopin 3 Times Daily in July of 2008.
Dosage increased to .5 MG of Klonopin in morning and at lunch and 1 MG of Klonopin at night in February of2009.
Dosage increased to 1 MG of Klonopin morning and night and .5 MG of Klonopin at lunch in August of 2009. Cymbalta 60mg Started.
Dosage increased to 1 MG of Klonopin morning and noon and 2mg of Klonopin at night in July of 2010 and as needed so most day I was on 6-8mg.
Self Tapered 1mg every two weeks Starting February 1, 2011 Stopped Cymbalta March 21, 2011.
Hit the One Year Mark April 1

Do you ever have mental symptoms get to the point of near-crisis mode? I had en episode like that this morning. For about 30 minutes, I felt like I should be committed somewhere. Of course the thoughts following that was picturing them feeding me meds so that was out of the question. After 30 minutes I was better. It wasn’t adrenaline or panic. I just felt crazy as a bat!
