My name is Alan and am 25 days sober from hydro and benzos. I am still fighting
withdrawl from benzos and never thought they would have messed me up this bad for so long. I am having panic attacks and move around very slow. I started
taking Zoloft today for the first time but still was in panic mode all day. Thanks for letting me talk.

Welcome, Alan!
Glad you've made it here to the best recovery site on the web!

Please continue to post and share your experience, strength and hope.And go over to the NA or the substance abuse forums, and receive the same from others.

A live naranon meeting would be helpful too.

Shalom!

Welcome Alan!

I hope the Zoloft helps you with with panic attacks. They are brutal to get through. There's lots of support and information here.

Welcome Alan to SR.

My name is Sharon and Im an Alcoholic.

Ive been sober since 8-11-90 by the Grace of my HP
and people like u here in SR. For that and u im truely grateful.


Be patiant with ur new medicine and work closely with ur doctor so he can monitor ur side affects....it took a yr to find the right medicine to work with my chemical imbalance and system.....not everyone has the same body system and not all meds work the same on everyone....so let ur doctor know about the side affects if they continue after a period of time.....
