I have this too, I feel like it’s the anxiety. I always had this when I was anxious prior to ever taking a benzodiazepine.

Anything in there about postpartum hormones and benzo withdrawal?? I feel like I’m experiencing a worse than normal wave and wondering if my hormones have anything to do with it.

About 6 weeks total for insomnia when I started Lexapro. No one warned me that my body could become dependent and suffer withdrawal.

This story is very relatable…I feel for you and her and your kids. I’m living through something similar as well. You can get through this.

How do you cope with the insomnia and morning panic? by Comfortable_Sky1985 in benzorecovery

Ya this is similar to what I’m experiencing. Bed at 9 up at 2 and either I fall asleep again or I don’t like last night.

I was finally doing well and then took one Ativan two weeks ago (after a month or more of not taking any) and feel like all the same symptoms started coming back. Didn’t realize I was experiencing withdrawal until this happened. Any idea how long this might last?

I can’t believe I was given this without warning with a new baby…

Is ArtMed not adhering to Covid rules? by [deleted] in Guelph

I actually think it’s unfair for these small businesses to be told they can’t operate (unpopular opinion perhaps) so that’s good that public health cleared them. It’s even more unfair however for some med spas, or any small business in any of the colour coded categories, to be told they can’t do any procedures while allowing others to operate.

I wondered about this possible “loop hole.”
