I went through a horrible withdrawal from ativan two and half years ago. It sent my CNS into overdrive. But I eventually got better. I have been extremely well and able to teach full time this past year. Then I got a very bad case of poison oak and was put on prednisone for 9 days, starting at 40mg. and then coming off at 10mg. I am so very sick again. It took me a year and half to recover from the benzos. How long does this horrible diarrhea, nauseousness, inner vibrating last???

Been at 50 mg of Lamictal for 6 months now- went to 150 at one time with bad results, rash, more depressed, spacy, tired and everything that goes along with that. I take it for depression/anxiuety along with 4 mg of clonipin and Ativan mixed daily.. I am not as sharp as I used to be. Searching for words in speach and typing. I am sure for some people this drug is fine. For me it does nothing but make me worse. I am scared to come off it totally. I am at 37 mg right now. My mood swings are worse. I look for vergbal fights, look to get angry and can't stop myself when I am in a verbal fight.. I am not the same person. I have tried every anti depresant in the books with no results. My only savior is Benzos. Clon and ativan. I would not survive without them. Does anyone know the long term side affects of this drug. When stopping this drug do the side affects diminish or go away. I have much more to say but can't remember cuz of this wonderful drug..Good luck to all

I was prescribed Clonazepam for anxiety about 3 months ago coupled with a generic version of zooloft. I am definately starting to feel insane. My head aches at random times. I do still drink and smoke leafy substances, which i know is not recomended, but I am still in college and I feel sometimes like its the only way to meet ppl, drinking/partying, especially in places where there isn't much else. I want to get off the drug, but I am so afraid of the side effects. I don't really feel better on it. because I like having energy, I am a spunky girl and it takes away my spunk. I just wanna know how to function in society. I get nervous around new ppl, especially bosses/or anyone in my field, if I don't take the drug, but I can't even really tell if it is helping. At first it was fine, but now my head hurts all over/ headache. I forget things, which may be the sertraline, but regardless I want to get off of it. I feel more insane now than I did before.

has anyone started experiencing liver problems? I have been taking Benadryl frequently (for anxiety) and now have these problems. Is it a coincidence? Stormy Georgel

choking on my tongue, unable to breathe, rapid heart palpitations, jerking up and down, impossibility of staying still, terrifying.
Kemedrin
(procyclidine) deals with this but then its unable to get up, sleeping in the day, nightmares. i live alone so i HAVE TO get up to get food and go to bank, pay bills etc, there is NOBODY to help me with the practicalities so i was starving while unable to get up. meanwhile it has zero effect in diminishing delusions. i'm supposedly rapid cycling mixed state bipolar which i was before the experiments on me with psych drugs started. geodon was being used to get me off benzos, think i'll have to stick with the benzos despite their proven schizogenic effects

Hycotuss is not as addictive as Tussionex because it is not a suspension. It still has hydrocodone in it so it can have a seditave effect like Vicodin ES. Although for some people hydrocodone can have an adverse events such as racing thoughts and nervousness, which is contradicted in an opiod. This applies to Xanax, too, in that it should not be given to children or psychotic patients because it may stimulate unprovoked rage and activity from them. These are called paradoxial reactions and so far the ones in the benzos seem to apply to the opiod family too. Good Luck, Mr. Pharmaceutical

Took it in August this year.
Developed raging anxiety, insomnia, memory loss, muscle twitches, weakness, nausea, lost myself, my job and almost my husband.
I'm on Benzos now.
Thanks Cipro and your makers, you took my life from me
