I reposted this. I was told it was in an old thread. I also posted the fatigue question


To: all
I am at day 13 of no tramadol and for the most part am functioning. When I try to sleep I still get a knawing sensation in my chest that is REALLY uncomfortable and the "jimmy" legs and arms. My biggest complaint is the overwhelming feeling of lethargy, but that seems to come and go. But that might just be that I've been so lazy for years (I'm 59).

I am using the Thomas Recipe but I can't really say how much it helps but I know that I need vitamin and mineral supplements so it can't hurt.

NOW the main thing I found is clonazepam. And this scares me. I will go a couple days without it and sleep only a little then I'll take 0.5mg in the evening and sleep through the night and for almost the entire next day I feel fine. BUT Clonazepam is an addictive benzodiazepine SHOULD NOT BE USED DAILY OR LONG TERM. .

Well thats my story so far...

I think you meant to say "WONT GET ADDICTED RIGHT?"

Basically hardstuff, by just taking one here and there just to help induce sleep through the hardest of times with the withdrawl shouldn't get you addicted at all!  So if it is helping you sleep that much, I SAY DO IT!  THE MORE SLEEP THE BETTER WHEN WITHDRAWLING!  IF I COULD SLEEP THROUGH IT ALL* I WOULD!

BEST OF LUCK

I am also on the Clonzaepam (Klonipin).  It is the only was I am able to sleep.  Yes it is very addicitive but if you are only taking 1 every couple of nights you should get addicted.  It has been my life saver to get me through the worst of the restlessness.  I don't take them during the day, but I do take them to sleep.
