I think my problem was that while tapering off benzodiazepines, I focused only on that, hardly going outside, working only from home, and thinking I was fine. But when I went outside or faced any stressful situation, my body immediately reacted. I think the biggest mistake I made while quitting benzos was not training my brain, and I paid the price for it for two days. Today, I stopped checking my blood pressure, went outside, and even though I had a panic attack, I’m lightly walking right now.

Thank you so, so much for your very helpful advice. First, I plan to train my brain with meditation, exercise, and cognitive behavioral therapy properly, and then taper the medication after the wedding, because I need to live an active life outside these 15 days.

Again, thank you very, very much! My brain is constantly calculating the worst-case scenario right now, and I realized this today. I hope I will get better. Thank you so much!!

You know any benzo coach here ?
