I don't know how to stop this. I don't know how to stop my thoughts.
It has to get better at some point. It's the only thing that keeps me going.
Hi Patricia, I am part of this class but you all wouldn't know it as I havent posted (but lurked alot) since i quit drinking 8 days ago. I just wanted to say that i was on Ativan several years and when i quit taking it, it was rough. You say you think you are having benzo withdrawls. Well it took me over a month to feel normal again. I was chronically tired, head aches and woyld get these weird vision things happening. Stick it out and it will get better. I will say i tapered iff them and i dont know what your experience is but wanted to say i have been there!
