    SOoo I'm currently in withdrawl
    From SSRI's and Xanax, also alcohol
    It's very difficult to even type because my hands are shaking so bad.
    I started feeling really numb and deadened from both (obviously, right?) and started slicing up my body and being very destructive but now Ive stopped cold turkey and am having withdrawals. I know it is dangerous to stop these things cold turkey but it's the only way I've ever been able to stop anything, tapering has never work for me. I'm having such bad sweats and shakes and throwing up and all that jazz and I just want to sleep and can't.

    Anyone have any tips to make withdrawing easier?

    Alcohol withdrawals can actually kill you. If you insist on not detoxing safely I recommend just drinking as much nutritous fluids (I prefer low sodium vegetable juice) and smoking as much pot as possible to ride it out. Make yourself comfy and watch some movies, your sick and need to recover.
    The shakes are a bad sign, I hope you have someone to take you to a hospital if you go into a seizure. It's really physically damaging to your vital organs to go cold turkey like this.

    So can xanax withdrawals. Not smart to stop both at the same time, imo.

    Xanax withdrawals are fuckin horrible. Have you had any hallucinations? I got those, and not the fun kind, along with the most intense anxiety and depression ever. How long ago did you stop?

    Weed actually helps a lot if you can get yourself to smoke, and I'm not just saying that cause it's the stoner's lounge

    When I went through xanax withdrawals I definitely made use of copious amounts of pot and powerade. Time was really the only thing that helped, pot just helped to distract myself from the clock :D

    Good luck to you girl :cheers2:

    Also remember to drink a lot of liquids if you're vomiting. Aside from the obvious replacing fluids, puke just comes up a lot easier when it's liquid.

    Ice cream. It numbs your pain.

    I ate a whole pint of it tonight. I recommend Haagen Dazs Caramel Cone Explosion.
