Hey Miklo and Welcome I am glad to see you have made the choice to get your life back. Actually isn't it just a good feeling when you make that decision. The other posters gave you some great advice on how to handle w/d. Just rmemeber to drink alot of fluids and flush that crap out of your body. Going CT is about cleansing your body of the nasty toxins of drugs so drink alot of fluids and keep yourself hydrated.

Welcome and good for u for making this decision.I was taking a little more than u and actually went cold turkey(dnt have the disipline to taper like most addicts).Ur tapering so how r u feeling?Yes the thomas recipe has a lot of good tips.I can tell u what helped me most.Immodium name brand works a million times better than generic.take it generously double or triple the dose when u need it.it actually helps ease other symptoms too.I took a benzo which a lot of us do to help w/anxiety and sleep for some.If u do this take the smallest amount necessary and no longer than a week.if thats not an option there r a lot of otc rememdies for anxiety others say work great and r listed on the thomas recipe.A sleep aid otc.i used tylenol p.m. Also something for nausea.Make sure u stay hydrated.The worst will be day3unsually and after that it gets easier.I agree that u should jump as soon as u can cause people taper and end up n acute withdrawl while still doing it so u will just be n w/d longer.

welcome here, miklo :)

And congrats on your decision of quitting the pills !!! I would advice you to read as much posts as you can and also read the Thomas recipe ( health pages, bottom of the screen ) you will find there all the home remedies you are asking for.... I see that you are tappering down the pills, you will feel some disconfort and i would jump as soon as this disconfort is like going through wds.

Keep posting and good luck !
