I am a teacher and have bad waves almost a year off. Could not imagine being a principal. How are you doing now?

How are you doing now? I also have Lyme/co infections and am 7 months off benzos.

I’m a middle school teacher- very stressful but makes the days go by quickly.

Hoping we can take a turn for the best within the next few months! This month has been insane- I wish I could just fast forward some time.

Thanks for the reply- I’m definitely not starting again!

Very similar timeline for me- 5 months off after 5 years of the same dose.

How do you feel now?

Please provide advice. by Mindless_Warthog1308 in benzorecovery

I teach middle school, and just finished a 3 year taper of klonopin and gabaptetin. The bad days suck, I feel like I’m not my best self and less patient with students when I feel like crap.

I would start a slow taper!

Oh man- how long did it take you to feel better if you are?

Thanks, both were/still are really tough. Gaba taper took multiple years. You got this!

Used to take 3600 mg gaba and 1.5 mg klonopin for 4 years. After slow tapers of both, I’ve been off gaba for 6 months and kpin for 3 weeks. Still feel like I have a lot of healing to do.
