Thanks man like I admit openly I WANT HALCION/RESTORIL/DALMANE/ANYTHING SEND IT TO PAPA'S FACE soooooooooooooooo bad. Like irrationally I was staring at pills and crying real life or on the screen it's like NOOOOOOOOOO.
I figured out the rebound insomnia lasts longer because you're disrupting sleep which happens only 1x/night so it's not easy to reset that, whereas you experience panic/anxiety more so anytime I've quit xanax it was NO PROBLEM whatsoever. Even after high dose for much longer and I totally, *totally* do not understand that whatsoever. It's irrational as fuck.
It was really stupid of me to ride hypnotics as hard as I did and I'm a fucking idiot for that, I really am. But the equivalent of alprazolam is quite easy to quit and totally I didn't get that until it was far into hypnotic use. To be fair the hypnotics are REALLY nice and OH SO LOVELY feeling.
It's 0200 here and I'm making FOOD because I CANNOT EVEN GIVE INTO A YAWN/TIREDNESS I am turned up a bit too high. If a bottle of temazepam just materialized in front of me I"d take at least 30mg knowing it would do *something*. Dalmane = even better. I need that puppy to keep me under for A WHILE.
I probably also shouldn't be concerned with how I'm doing considering *I believe in determinism* so I'll either work through this or I won't. It's all about perspectives/perception anyways. That's why this doesn't really bother me. I've gone on an insane bender that's lasted the better part of mostly on/off 40 days now. Not benzos but, ya know, stuff. Not heroin/opiates so that's a plus.
I'm not exactly... sick of myself but this is just... different and I need alone time I likely won't get any time soon haha. I'm too much of a... tool. In like the nicest way to *self* as possible.
Many people, on here/fam/friends/strangers in real life ask me how much meth/crack/cocaine I'm on. NONE. This is me coming off benzos, I think, and yes it does make me manic. Most people would probably NOT like this but, it's quite lovely to me and way better than doing ANYTHING I CAN to get some hypnotics (I'm not coming across those irl!!!) and I have bars and a hypnotic (30ct. at least/around there) that I do NOT want to take and I'm avoiding at all costs.
It's painful. I still cannot really leave/function without them at hand unless I'm feeling especially brave/well off. Well it turns out I am not at the moment. I'm working on mental health issues and will likely require "REPROGRAMMING TIME", so to speak. Sleep and eating and sleep seems to be the best.
Sadly I don't have but a set number of days left to myself at the moment.
...Then it dawns on me that I've been high and awake for 18 hours. And I really want sleep but know it isn't coming. Ouch. This is bad and I feel awful for being like this.
