I went for Klonoshit detox in Florida where I followed the NAD IV protocol. The treatment was for 10 days and actualy SAVED MY LIFE! period! Some said it won’t last….. been 6 years!!!
Were you in withdrawal already when you went? I’m in severe SSRI withdrawal and no meds seem to bring relief at all for it. I am considering doing this and just getting off the last bit of lexapro im on.
My doctor made me go to detox off 70mg in 3 days. She kept telling me to cold turkey at home and it was mind over matter and I was full of shit. I ended up having seizures and a stroke on an airplane. Want to die still everyday 2 years later
I believe it depends on the psyche and disorders of each individual. I will go to cozumel for life to get my meds this country has taken 3 family members down in 5 years.
Same it’s low and slow. In an age we want everything microwaved, we gotta slow it down. I went from 2 mg for four years straight to 1 mg for 1-2 months. Then a half a milligram for another month sometime taking it every other day then got the courage to face the withdrawal symptoms.
I tried to taper 1/2 off 3 had severe psychosis a d a extremely psychotic episode last weekend. Dr's are dropping people like me daily. Killed my uncle April 2022 after 32 years of 3.5 mg
I have been addicted to Diazepam for over about 25 years and I've been in rehab which was absolute horrendous they tried to take me down from 80 mg which they prescribed me at 2mg a day when it got down to about 10 mg I was so ill I was given all sorts of other drugs but that made me worse but they sent me home so I had to buy them and I even did 2mg a week in the community and when I started getting all I can describe it as was severe lockjaw went to the doctor to see if he would give me an extra week to hopefully stop the lockjaw he promptly stopped my medication and said the only place for you is a Mental hospital so far I've just bought them and I'm 55 and still addicted and with no option for any help cause the doctors are saying we don't prescribe them anymore, I said well you did look at the mess you've left me in .
In this video, Nicole says that you can updose to stabilize before starting a taper - if needed. Has anyone ever done it successfully? I'm in pretty bad tolerance withdrawal and I haven't even started my taper. Lots of people told me not to do that but I don't know how I'll manage to taper off of I get any worse.
I said it bc I've seen people do it and have success. Also, this is why doctors increase the dose in their patients - bc tolerance and the original dose is less effective. This is why the escalating doses over the years in some patients who are long-term users. If one is going to go up just to haphazardly come down again, though, it's pointless bc they'll just destabilize themselves into bad w/d again and be right back where they started. My preferred method of w/d is daily microtaper. I've seen it work wonders time and time again in folks.
I will be honest the detox treatment u was almost forced after 26 yrs of 3mg klonipin I got minor brain damage and am on disibility for life. It's a love hate relationship. The dr ripped me cold turkey I had 4 months amnesia
I went for 30 day residential treatment for benzos, they tapered me in 7 days and it was total torture never go to detox they dont know what they are doing.
@debbiemortinson I learned phosphatidylserine only good 2x a week max as for me I get 2 days relief but it will build tolerance etc but 2x c a c week only. How your sleep ?
@@garysimone4977 Since being off meds, sleep is better - still not great, but sleep at least every night about 4-6 hours (previously could go days without sleep). Melatonin also made it worse for me.

NO...Just DO NOT GO TO A DETOX CENTER!!!!
I experienced this myself. It was NOT OK!!! 😢

What was the price and/or what's the place called?!?!

I went low and slow, it is the only way to go.
Absolute!

I agree and don't worry about how slow your going as long as it's in the right direction ..
Me too. I’ll be 5 years free this Christmas. ❤️🩹
3 60 day failed rehabs
Poly drugged
Torture.
Successful taper with Ashton method where I had full control of taper.
“full control.” Ding, ding, ding. 👌🏻❤️🩹
Hi Nicole, I'm not sure you read this. I was just wondering if Dr. Halligan ever mention the name of the rehab in Florida that did a 1-year taper?

How are you doing now , did you manage to taper?
U ok
I did a 5 day detox for Klonopin n it was hell! I went through withdrawal still. Its torture to do that to someone
I will be honest the detox treatment u was almost forced after 26 yrs of 3mg klonipin I got minor brain damage and am on disibility for life. It's a love hate relationship. The dr ripped me cold turkey I had 4 months amnesia
Where are the lawyers on this?
Same thing happened to me.
I went for 30 day residential treatment for benzos, they tapered me in 7 days and it was total torture never go to detox they dont know what they are doing.
What type of detox was this?
Medical detox 30 day
Has anyone used phosphatidylserine in there recovery it is a nootropic
Made it worse for ms. In fact, all supplements put me in set back. I think our neural pathways get so damaged that we just don't tolerate things well.

Detox place is not the answer
