The hardest part of night 1
All the detox symptoms we all know and love (right?) suck. But do other people find falling asleep on night one to be scary?
(did I take enough benzos to get me through the night? Am I going wake up hallucinating?)
These are my questions that scare me.

Ok I see that this is a night #1 for you. I'm sorry you are facing some scary questions.
Did a doctor prescribe the benzos? If it were me, and I felt afraid, I would call the MD on call just for a check-in and reassurance.
Sometimes I sleep with the lights on when I feel scared.
I would keep a phone by me, and keep SR pulled up on it or on the computer.
Do you have any pets? I keep mine close when I am anxious.
You are really brave to be here tonight taking the first step to getting well.

I've been down the detox road a lot. This is just how I feel about falling asleep. More hypothetical even though I AM detoxing.
The meds they gave me last for like 4 hours. I'm not in any danger or anything. Heart rate is a tad high, but my body's going through a "tad" if you will.
I had to have my kitty rehomed because she attacks my 8 month old son. So I don't have her either.
