16 days anxiety still a problem.

This may seem like a foolish question, but what type of symptoms do you experience with anxiety?

Watch out for the Benzos which is what Clonazapam is they are just as addicting and far more difficult to get off. You can't ct Benzos take them very liberally and not more than a week. Once a week or 10 days go by your sleeping should improve each passing day.

Hi, to me it feels like everything is rushing inside my body.  When it's really bad, I have that rushing feeling & a million thoughts a minute, usually worry thoughts.  It will get better as time goes on.  Hang in there!

I do take Clonozepam when I cant stand it.  Usually one a day.

I used to get a big knot in my stomach; things would actually seem to warp - can't explain it, almost a dizzy feeling but not quite. Then a feeling of dread.
But, as minn said, the physical and mental state of anxiety during recovery is just our bodies adjusting to the normal ups and downs of daily life, no matter how small. (On day 4 of my detox I freaked because I went to get a haircut and the shop was closed! Earth shattering, right?) At day 16 you are still adjusting, but it will get better and better from this point on. That is a promise.

Yes, I shake too. Oh, hun, I feel so bad for you. The crying I think is more about our bodies just trying to get back to normal. I have and still do my share of that. Hugs and I hope you feel better soon.

Thanks you so much,Minn.  I also start shaking and cant stop crying. I really do not know if it is from the withdrawal or the spinal infection that kept me in the hospital for five weeks.   I was on very potent medication for seven weeks.  I had a pic line so the antibiotic when directly into my blood stream.

Thanks again,
SEAGULL

Hi, not a stupid question at all because I think it can be different from person to person. For me, my heart starts beating fast. I find it hard to breathe. I begin sweating and I have a strong urge to just get away! They say anxiety is due to our primitive instinct of fight or flight. Makes sense to me.
