Well this is very unsettling. I think I'm about to fall into status epilepticus, and have a siezure from benzI w/d. Fuck I have to drive and go to work tomorrow even though I can't stop shaking and I'm having severe visual distortion. I only have 3 somas to take before work :(

Please don't drive if you're likely to have a seizure. That's putting other people and yourself in danger.
 
I don't feel safe driving at all. I don want to go to work because I have to cook steak on a broiler.
If I don't feel any better soon I will have to call an ambulance. Maybe I can get my mother to drive to me and give me a few mgs of lorazepam. That's really my only hope until I can take my soma right before work.
That's a ten hour window in which I could have a siezure. My vision is starting to leave me. It's all blurry and full of tracers like a heavy psychedelic experience.

Please get your mom to get you to the ER.
 
Dude that sucks.

I had a similar experience with clonazepam withdrawal, except I was far from where you are.
I kept seeing different colors and lights everywhere. The room was moving. My vision, when I looked at a computer was completely fucked. The screen would leave constant tracers. I started getting tunnel vision. It was pretty bad.
 
^ exactly what I am experiencing. In only on the computer to calm me anxiety.
I'm having a major case of tachycardia right now. I can feel iron my head it's so bad. Involuntary shaking and grimacing out the wazu. I image this is what flumanezil is like to someone dependent on benzos.
Repetitive thoughts and severe joint pain are starting to kick in. Its like I just got out of multiple surgerys that I've had in the past. I can't even buy alcohol bc it's too late.

You won't die.

Find a paper bag and breathe into it.
 
I got a friend to swing by and give me some k-pins. Only 1mg but I'm sure it will at least help with the physiological state of panic. Thanks guys, I appreciate the support.

IME its impossible to die.

I've put my body through so much shit I should have died ten years ago. Just had a full checkup and I'm healthier than my sister who abstains from all drugs and maintains a "vegitarian diet." (I was vegan for three years.)

I don't take any special precautions against germs, I think this is why.

NOT ADVICE. JUST ANECDOTAL IRONIC PERSONAL EXPERIENCE.

Hope you're feeling better.

Ya man get help. When I would go into WD while heavily dependent I experienced multiple psychotic breaks and can totally relate to what your experiencing. That shit is literally out of control. It's a medical emergency man.
 
This is the reason why I try my hardest to never get to the point of some sort of physical dependence with benzodiazepines. Not to mention I already have a physical dependence to opioids from daily methadone + occasional IV heroin (interestingly I've cut back my methadone dose to 20mg majority of the time instead of 30mg). I could not imagine having a dependence to both benzos and opioids, that shit must be absolutely nuts.

I've some how managed to go over a full year with out gaining a dependence to benzos. Every month I use them probably 2 weeks (+/- 3-5 day) through out the month, with a portion of it "tossed" our of my possession. I never try and take high doses as well. Granted it was with clonazepam, so I'm trying to figure out how its gonna work with alprazolam. I have used it ~15 days then a week and half break with not much of a problem, so it could work out the same.

I learned from using methadone that if I'm going to take a prescription drug with dependence/addiction, I have to either really control my use based on how fast/strong the dependence builds, or use them everyday to avoid a handful every month that makes the average chicks PMS look like a walk in the park (I hate it when some women use that shit as an excuse when they don't know what physical and emotional pain is from say opioid WD).

Also it is certainly not impossible to die from benzodiazepine WD but this isn't really seen unless you're in seriously in deep (decently high dose with an extended period of daily use). Similar to Alcohol. Plenty of people are alcoholics yet aren't downing enough everyday to cause people to die from WDing. Its always better to be safe than sorry.
 
^Me too man, I will never allow myself to become dependent on benzodiazepines ever again. That's a promise I made to myself that I do not intend on breaking.

Regardless of whether he'll live or die, it's stupid to cold turkey benzodiazepines. I don't care if you can ride it out without seizures, great for you, but I personally would never allow myself to abruptly discontinue benzodiazepines.
