I'm out of Benzo Hell: How? It was the Psyllium. UNY ADVICE IF YOU HAVE TIME :)
Hey,
Just wanted to let you know that I'm finally out of benzo hell... the symptoms of it that I was having have taken about a week to abate, and what did I do? I stopped taking my T of Psyllium at the same time as my morning meds... my 5mg HC, 45mg Pork Thyroid, 7.5mg Valium, and 30mg Prozac. It had been 3-4 months, and finally figured that this might be it... well, proof is in the results.
Seriously, just like that. It's taken about a week, and the first few days I had some pretty intense symptoms like my cns was getting plowed and then it gradually reduced into the numbing, benzo induced sleepiness that has worn off.
All I'm feeling right now is a bit of tiredness, some burning skin, and a few of the chemical/
food sensitivities that had been made worse.
One thing I want to ask if you see this Uny is... once I completely stabilize after 2-3 weeks or so... I really want to cut down from 1.5 pills (45mg) of Thyroid to 1pill (30mg)... how do you go about cutting armour thyroid med...??? I want to reduce that to at least 1 pill because money is getting tight... and I just want to keep the Valium where it is for a while.
Seriously, thanks for your support during this. Finally have my life back.
