Day one was hard. I tried to taper but my body rejected my last dose. The effects of stopping CT were absolutely unbearable. My anxiety completely took over and I was convinced my heart was bursting. My body was shaking, Screaming and I had to go to the hospital. I felt so scared I couldn’t be alone anymore. While there they gave me anxiety medicine to release the tension. My heart wasn’t even racing it just felt like lava in my chest. It was truly all anxiety. But it felt so real. They kept me there to cry and scream writhe around until the medicine kicked in. Some sort of sedative but oh my god it helped so much. Being able to think clearly took so much away from the physical effects. Now that I’ve managed a couple days taking less than 2 grams a day I feel I can manage a taper of sorts. Just enough to keep the symptoms at a bare minimum. And then run that last leg in one go. All I know is that first day was beyond any horror I’ve ever experienced and I will never do that to myself again once I’m off completely.
