Hi
Sorry for lack of introduction.
For past 4 months I took 6-7mg of xanax and 4mg of Clonazepam a day with a stimulant I got from online pharmacy called Modafinil.
I wake up feeling like shit and take that dose of benzo (clonazepam sometimes substitute with Etizolam) 200-400mg of Modafinil. That's all. Maybe sometimes 1mg of xanax or Pregablin to sleep at night.
I dont know how it started. Once took xanax - it just took control of me. Now I don't find any fun in it. I take it out of fear that if I don't I will feel symptoms of withdrawal.
One more thing - I also took this medicine that has 100mg Tramadol and 325mg Paracetamol x 3 tablets at the start of the day.
What I found was - I could miss a day or two or three without the Modafinil, or benzos. Really didn't feel anything other than perhaps calmness? Some dry mouth from Modafinil? But even when I tried to increase the dosage because I started feeling body aches - they did not go away. I switched to valium 40 mg a day - still leg pain, forearm pain, mild headache - with the same cocktail of modafinil but extra benzos but they did not help.
Turns out when I take that pain killer known as Tramamol Extra with 100mg tramadol and 325mg Paracetamol - pains and aches went away.
Right now I still take 5mg xanax, 2 mg Clonazepam and 100mg Modafinil but I feel achy every 3rd day. I can increase the dosage but I feel achy and groggy with increased dosage.
Add that pain killer - boom all is fine in an hour.
What am I suffering from? This Benzo combo withdrawal or need for upping dosage or this weak opioid known as Tramadol. Note that not having xanax or clonazepam or etizolam is just 'fear' and then modafinil is to counter the feeling of drowsiness. It works. Also, I can go many days without it.
I go even one day without this weak opioid + paracetamol - man do I feel achy. I take it at basically 300mg Tramadol and 975 paracetamol (dont know if it is acetaminophen or ibuprofen as the other salt) for 4 days in a row - 5th day I can skip but I get very itchy.
6th day I can take a low dose. 7th day tho - my legs and forearms just kill me with pain. Also mood does not uplift from benzos as much as it does from Tramadol.
What am I going through? I read some threads in here with people going to doctors and getting better and being on similar meds like me but they had more issues with benzos and not Tramadol.
