Yeah, stopping meds, even by carefully tapering off, can cause lots of distress. Why are you stoppingmeds? Is it worth it? I've been through it and my answers are "no". Take care of yourself!

When I stopped xanax and alcohol I felt like I had been drinking all night, had two hours of sleep, and then drank three pots of coffee. I felt like that constantly for about a week and a half. What meds are you stopping and why? Usually the pdocs will have you taper off slowly to avoid the worst of the side effects.

I was just asking. I'm in no position to say what you should be looking for, or why. I think we should all do what we want as long as we're willing to accept the consequences. Another of my favorite sayings is that sometimes we're our own worst enemies.
