BTW..how did your idea of tapering work out? Have you had another
episode of loseing control of your body? That must have been
awfully frightening for sure...
My tapering went as well as I thought it would go. I drank enough alcohol to keep most of the withdrawal symptoms away, but still went through some issues when trying to go asleep. I spent most of the first night hallucinating about snakes in my bed. I finally regained my saneness at around 4 am, shivering under my couch. I detoxed for the next week. I'm still feeling a bit of brain fog, but recovering.
I don't even have a phobia of snakes, and I spent most of that night hallucinating about rattlesnakes. God, I hate this fu***** substance.
