@Brenmos I've been in a wave again. Sounds like a broken record. It is exhausting, I am envious of your sleep. Just keep telling myself that I am one day closer to healing.

My daughter is doing well. So thankful for that. She is such a fighter and I am super proud of her. 👍💯

Very slowly. When I think back to even 6 months I see progress but when I am in a wave I feel like I am going backwards. Trying to convince myself that it is just my body trying to adapt and there will be benefits eventually. Hopefully sooner than later.

I went cold turkey at the end of August 2022. By the end of November I was in the depths of hell and had read about reinstatement. November 28, 2022 I reinstated. Almost immediately it helped with the SI and dp/dr. But it took months to get past the nausea, dizziness, confusion, etc. I still overstimulate so easily so I have to be so selective in what I read it watch on tv. Probably have watched 6 movies in the last year or so. 

So far me, healing started with reinstatement. By July 2023 I tried a small taper. I seem super sensitive so from July 23 to now I have only tapered from 5 mg to 4.4 mg. 

Hoping with more stability it will get easier.
