I wouldn't use it on my own...Like someone said it's a drug too and adictive too...But it's the only way so u wont get an psychical detox...Make sure the doctor (and especially yourself build it down...After a few months...Cos it really is a drug too and otherwise u would only replace one addiction with another...Anyhow I wish you all the best and be very proud you get this far...Love from Stefanie
