IBS symptoms & had to take 38mg Seroquel + ZzzQuil to finally sleep last night. I'm often slow on things. Some of these negative symptoms could very well be from K-pin w/d. I should have clicked in better when Dr. D. told me to take only 1/2mg every morning for 2 weeks. That's cutting down way too much, too rapidly. I sure hope he doesn't suggest decreasing any more on Wednesday. At this point, he needs to add in a different benzo and possibly increase the Gaba. Also, I'm considering increasing to 3/4mg A.M. and wait on the 1/2mg until I'm also on Xanax or Valium. I'm not in this to torture myself, I'm doing this voluntarily. __________________ |

I can't believe myself sometimes. I could be the target of a "dumb blonde" joke. The moment Dr. D. told me to cut the K-pin by a full 1/2 I should have known that was far too much. I experienced the same weirdo sleep experience this morning. The best way I can describe it is that I'm talking to myself in my sleep. A non-stop dialogue. As a result, I'm not truly asleep. Anyway, today I increased the morning pill to 3/4mg. Dr. D. needs to prescribe another benzo, I can't do this cold-turkey. Even the 3/4 may be difficult, I'll see how it goes.

I'm closing this thread as of 11/19/2022 to start a new one so I can better keep track, since this thread is years old.
