In reply to Xanax Withdrawal, posted by Phyllis Chandler on August 7, 1998, at 16:38:29
A bit of history, I got back from Iraq about a year and a half ago and started taking Klonopan. I took it for a year and finally got off. (Man that was hard!) Right after I started feeling better, my wife and I lost our baby boy. This immidiately put me back on Klonopon and xanax. It was the only way to keep it together for my wife and daugter. (so I thought) At the same time I was taking Vicoden and percocet for a Line of Duty injury I had. Well, I realized the opiots got me throught the day and I started abusing them. Now I'm hooked on both. I've been to three doctors and they all say "just get off." Obviously it is easier said than done. I realy dug myself into a dich here. I dont know If I should get off the Benzos or the Opiots first. I cant do both and Function at all. Sadly I'm at the point that when I take them I am "normal." I take care of my wife (she has DVT) and my doughter and go to work. I dont want to be like this and need to be a good father and husband while "clean." I really need help and I think others experience will help. At this point doctors to me are useless. Thanks in Advance and sorry for the long post.
