tonight I will swallow 34 nasty, vile devil's beads. Began my weaning off on Thurs Nov 7th. Taking supplements as recommended here on the forum. Bothered with nausea for the past few days.

Just so ready to be off completely this drug. A drug that was prescribed to me for pain of my lower back due to osteoarthritis. Don't know if it's helped a lot or not. All I do know is that I decided the SE of it were more than what I wanted to deal with in my life anymore. I have been to hells front door and have gradually made my way back...it has taken time, patience and lots of understanding from my family.

I am determined, I am a woman of faith I will one day in my future be FREE of this nasty drug.

I am sad what it has done to my brain and body and only hope that both can slowly repair themselves to maybe where I once was. I dunno but I have to have faith and hope that this can happen. In the mean time I will take whatever sense of "normal" I can get.

Much love, prayers and hope for us all here on this wonderful support forum!

    I c/t'd from 60mg in 2009. Went back on and started tapering. Spent the next 4 years trying to get off. It was very difficult. Finally stopped at 17 beads on Dec.4, 2013.
