Re: Severe Adrenal Fatigue TWICE

Hi Aerose,

wow it sounds like you have had a tough time, i can't believe they can just hand out benzos to people like that without fully explaining the consequences.

As far as the adrenal fatigue goes, i'm pretty close to full recovery now doing something called buteyko breathing, it's tough and requires hard work but it has changed my life. I recommend googling around and reading some testimonials for it , hopefully just doing that will get you feeling somewhat optimistic again.

During my darker days of AF i used to remind myself that how i feel is due to a biochemical state, it's not "me". Each day/hour/minute that goes past you are closer to having your health back and that you've already gotten through the first 7 months of benzo recovery! just keep going!

Also you sound similar to me in that i am also in my mid 20s and most of my AF was caused by very full on job/lifestyle combined with overtraining at the gym. As frustrating as it is to feel this terrible during the primes of your life, remember that if you take the right steps each day then there's no reason you shouldn't make a full and vibrant recovery. :)

good luck and keep going!
