I hope today is a better day for you too. Sun shining here in the East but it’s bloody cold. Hope Glasgow bringing it. Kind thoughts to you for a good, manageable day.

I know.  It’s very hard to go through this.  The brain has an amazing ability to heal.  Any other organ is so different.  You will get better.  You’ll see.

 

I think 1/2 a 2 mg is still too much.  Just take a tiny bit if you take any.

Feel a little better after not touching anymore drugs such as zopiclone and diazepam have started eating and walking just still not sleeping great but I’ll take that, thank you

Good.  It’s so frustrating that the sedating drugs cause problems.

Does anyone find certain foods help with symptoms or generally eating more healthy helps?

Thought I was getting better a few weeks ago then started getting shoulder blade pain, broke a bone in my back a few years ago so thought something to do with that, now it’s spread to my neck but it’s the most sickening ache I’ve ever had, thighs so weak also, does anyone have similar aches, ended up in hospital last week as my arms went numb and sore, heart check fine, blood tests fine, still in agony everyday

Hi, I see u have had an adverse reaction like I did. How are u doing? Any improvements? I hope so

Hello, @Totallylost, how are you doing?

[Totallylost]

Hi I’m back working, a hell of a lot better than I was but still struggle with weakness in the legs and anxiety, thanks for the message 

[Altostrata]

Good to hear of improvement! Which symptoms have gone away, how did they go away, which remain?

[Totallylost]

I no longer have panic attacks or stomach issues, it was a slow process of healing over time, I still have weakness issues in my legs and hips and arms that give me anxiety but I’m able to work even if it is a struggle, I was off for a long time and also have long covid so my muscles may well be weak still 

[Altostrata]

Very sorry to hear of the long covid, in addition. Hang in there! Please let us know how you're doing.

Thanks a lot for checking on me, I hope you are well, I will do
