Subject: Klonopin free, 22 months today!

And all I can say is WOW! If you'd told me I'd even survive withdrawal, I wouldn't have believed you.If you'd told me I'd ever stop hallucinating .. stop needing to cover my ears around traffic noise ... stop throwing up every night at 7pm whether I'd eaten or not .. stop walking the floors all night because I couldn't sleep .. stop feeling disconnected and detached from my own humanity .. I wouldn't have believed any of it.And if you'd told me then that I'd actually get to a place in my life where my anxiety was so mild, that I could actually talk my way through it (in my head), that I could train myself to avoid the negative thinking that always drove me to panic, I'd have HIT you for making me cry. (I did a lot of crying back then.)

I believe in miracles; I lived it.
