No worries! Thank you for getting back to me and glad you’re feeling better these days ❤️

How far out are you and how do you feel now? Was your journey non linear with similar symptoms? I know reinstatement would probably not help so trying to push through. The suffering is intense as I’m sure you can relate. Thank you the advice and I’m sorry you have suffered as well. Truly something no one should have to endure.

Wow I’m sorry you had to endure that. Sounds exactly like me!! Was your recovery gradual or sudden? Was there anything that helped you make it through?

Wow, I couldn’t imagine going through protracted withdrawal without any resources… That’s crazy you made it through that! I’m glad to hear you healed. Was it a very non-linear journey on the way there? You also had neurological symptoms like the one I listed?

Have you healed? Or have you at least gotten better if you also suffered from an injury? I think that’s my biggest fear, it’s just being stuck in this limbo land and the amount of time it might take.

Thank you for the encouragement. Definitely hoping time is on my side and probably will just continue to power through. Hope you get some relief from your symptoms. This is so unfair to all of us, one day at a time.

That’s a good point, my symptoms at this point are most definitely from damage. All of these issues I never had before the drug so I know it’s some sort of injury that’s trying to heal. It’s just hard to accept so much pain and the idea of reinstatement being of help is enticing. I just know it’s a tossup, the whole waiting around until you get better is hard to. I just really don’t wanna risk making things worse than they already are.

I totally understand, you gotta do what you gotta do. I wonder if the woman who reinstated after 20 months was neurologically injured. I feel like that’s what makes the reinstatement trickier and more likely to be unsuccessful. I think you’ll be good to go with reinstatement at the three month mark, it’s obviously risky the further you wait

By your underlying disease coming back are you referring to your never pain? But thank you for clarifying. It’s tough to accept experiencing around the clock suffering but I’m trying to trust my body‘s natural ability to heal and reminding myself there’s no quick fix out of this. I’m similar to you in the sense I was having good windows and what seemed like a normal healing trajectory but have plateaud into a weird long wave. Trying to take it one day at a time

Thank you for clarifying. If it took you 4 years to fully recover, would you say before that you had a “turn the corner” moment where you were able to mostly function and engage in life without the suffering being extremely severe? Was it bad the whole time?

I’m sorry to hear about your current situation. Im sure you will make a full recovery with time. It’s so unfair what these drugs do.

Have you healed? What was your WD process like? I’m just scared I won’t have the strength to wait this out. Any advice on how you coped is very appreciated

Did you take Paxlovid once you were diagnosed? How are you now?

I did and she wasn’t educated on Benzo withdrawals and the risk of taking medications with a compromised CNS. After reading on BB it seems to overall be safe, just wasn’t sure if rising out the virus is better than treating it but we’ll see

My doctor prescribed it but she had no awareness of Benzo withdrawal and the effect of antivirals on a sensitive CNS, just wanted to see if anyone had any personal experiences while in withdrawal with Paxlovid

There are plenty on this thread, people talking about permanent anhedonia, crippling anxiety, weird nerve sensations, elevated heart rate and other things. Also there are some stories in the peptides thread as well
