Gonna try from Friday gonna taper for a few days and go cold turkey after that. Not sure what else to do, doctors/ groups etc are out of the question.
hi..totally feel for you on this one,as I am living the same nightmare as you and desperate to get out of this never ending black hole,but I'm struggling with the early days wd's and the thought of the depression /emotional state that aparently comes later really scares me because I'm already on antidepressants that arent workin or helpin so how am I goin to cogeif I get a double wammy depression goin on..its too scary for me to think about! I really admire you for takin this massive step and will defiantly be checking back here to see how your doin and wishing you all the strength and will power in the world to beat this..take care x
