I think it's GREAT you're getting out! WOOHOO! Re: caaaaaandida
...and jboy, just remember, I've never said your problems started with the benzos, or that's all you have to deal with. I know you had problems before, and I respect that (and believe it) 100%.
The thing is, you just have to think of the benzos as something like heroin (only worse, because the usage and withdrawal effects can last for YEARS if you don't stabilize correctly...and especially if you come off too rapidly).
1% per day is 30% per month...and that's 10% faster than Ashton recommends. You're taking a risk withdrawing that fast, but I'm not telling you that to try to stop you. I'm telling you that 'so you know'. If you try to go off too fast, you have to start over. I know that's crappy, but that's just the facts.

I don't know why you're eating so much brown rice all the time - that's certainly not something you heard on this forum.
Eat whatever you can tolerate...as long as it's not
White Sugar , white flour, white salt or caffeine. And try to eat as organic as possible. Takin' a break from the EMF's should help a lot :)
Have a GREAT time tonight, jboy! Please know that we care very much about you (and like you a lot!).
Blessings,
Uny
