Yeah I’m glad I threw it up, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to take them again.

Everything you’re going through will be withdrawal. I was the same, I lost 17lbs and my bowels didn’t settle for a long time. So much so I had to go for a colonoscopy and endoscopy! So the health anxiety is normal. Everyday will get a bit better as you go along, and soon it will all seem like a horrid nightmare. In the beginning I never thought I’d be at nearly 4 months. So keep going you got this ????????

When I was about 2 days into my withdrawal I couldn’t get an app with my usual doctor and the one I saw just said to me not to take anymore, but I wasn’t going through withdrawal it was all in my head! Thank heavens I got in with my usual doctor a few days later and she explained it all to me and gave me a few diazepam. Some doctors make me laugh!
