Eternal Winter congrats big time!!! I just hit 13 months myself and I know it isn't easy.
Some days are harder than others and the stress and anger bubbles to the surface but then I try to kind of reset myself by sometimes taking a nap or some fake retail therapy where I just go look at the things I want.
I was addicted to xanax, vicodin, fentynal and zanaflex until April 3 of 2012 when I just decided at home I could do it myself. and tapered off all of them a day at a time for about 10 days then my pdoc found out and put me in detox for a few more days but that was not for me. I'm not saying I don't think about using everyday well almost but I have done good and have had no benzos , or narcotics for 13 months. I do still get the shakes on occation but those do pass with a little mind control. You should talk to your doc before starting to come off these meds it is dangerous and I was foolish not to go into rehab first, I was just lucky. We cannot depend on luck to save our lives always.

YOU LAUGH BECAUSE I AM DIFFERENT, I LAUGH BECAUSE YOU ARE ALL THE SAME
Don't only practice your Art,
But force your way through into its secrets,
For it and Knowledge can
Raise men to the Divine.
