" I've stopped a few times, but never dealt with my issues so it has always meant I've gone back to them. I cut down gradually, and felt no side effects. Can you tell us what is happening with u? "

" iv bin taking them for about 5 years now i think maybe more, if i run out and cant get my prescription at first i get so emotional, including euphoria, i cry at everything, i get horrible dizzyness, brain shivers, tingling in my tongue, then after about 3 days the depression and anxiety hits so hard and i cant cope. i hate taking them as they make me numb i think. I'v not had a sex drive for years (i do when i stop tking them) iv forgotten what normal feels like! "
