leeann,
On the road to freedom from psychtropic drugs, in general, the first milestone that you come to is the horrific condition you could find yourself in after a few days or weeks after cessation of the drug. In my reserch, and in my personal experiance, and in the people that I have known that withdrew from psychotropic drugs, many experiance suicide thoughts around the time of the horrific condition. Knowing this ahead of time is good, for the thoughts will pass away, for it is the cessation of the drug that can cause the thoughts and they will pass away.
At this place on the road to freedom from psychtropic drugs, you will need strengh to overcome the suicide thoughts. At this place on the road it will be evident that you have an enemy, a foe, and that you are at war with the foe that wants to destroy you. At this place you may feel that you are facing an army by yourself. You may feel forsaken by evryone, even God, if you a beleiver in God. You may feel that you have been framed by adversaries to be in this condition. You may ask how long you will be in this condition. There may be dispair and darkness. You may be in a state of fear. What must you do to be saved from this trouble?
I was in that condition. And when I was at that place on the road, I faced the enemy and said,
"The Lord is my light and salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the strengh of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked will come against me
To eat up my flesh,
My enenemies and foes,
They will stumble and fall.
Though an army shall encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
For in the time of trouble
The Lord shall hide me in His pavillion;
He shall set me high upon a rock.
And my head shall be lifted up
Above my enemies all around me;
And I will not be delivered to the will of my adversaries;
I will wait on the Lord
And be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen my heart;
Lou
