Wilkie,
Me too, although I doubt I'll be able to eliminate them completely. Tried before a number of times. I just saw 'A Beautiful Mind' last night and it was very inspirational. We can do this! If John Nash could, by God, so can we.

A few suggestions based on experience. Do NOT go off them all at once, but one by one very very slowly. The benzos should be the last to go since they'll help with the inevitable major stress you will be going through. Omega 3 fish oil helps alot. It's neuro protective and an antidepressant and we're all plain lacking in these oils. Keep your diet clean and simple, drink lots of pure water and get exercise. Take care of constipation - very important. Common sense stuff, but critical during this time when your body will be handling intense stress. I'm going to write in my journal daily just so I have a record of how I'm really feeling day by day. Many of us on this board seem to be coming to this 'enough stinkin' meds' sentiment. - BarbaraCat
