Hi PeaceEva

Thank you so much for the update. It sounds like you are doing well. Does the AM help you with the anxiety at all and the racing thoughts? That is what really affects me coming off valium.
Thank you

Honestly, I cannot tell. I’ve struggled with withdrawal symptoms more than resurfacing anxiety - up till 6 - 8 weeks ago. Maybe I need to consider ratcheting up my AM dose to see if it helps. I take 250mL at bedtime now.

I’m having a lot of trouble with racing thoughts and ruminating. While before I’d quash these with a benzo, I’m not sure if it’s lack of benzo that’s causing the intrusive thoughts. It might be my natural state coming through. I’m journaling a lot, writing tons of lists (began carrying a notebook so I’m not trying to remember every “important” thing I decide I need to not forget), and I’ve started listening to podcasts whenever I find myself winning arguments with strangers in my head :mrgreen: . I’m avoiding the self-help podcasts right now, I’ve been sticking to interviews and behind-the-scenes entertainment stuff.

Have you tried any mushrooms yet?

I write lists too, I find myself very forgetful these days. No I haven't tried any mushrooms yet.
