Remember my message? Two or three people just said the exact same thing I told you a few hours ago. You're in withdrawal as we speak and it's not going to be much worse, if any, than what it is now. You're just prolonging the symptoms. I know how bad you want to do this, and like Lu said, your fear is making it tougher on you. Trust us when we say you'll be okay. You have felt the symptoms for over two weeks now and still managed to taper down to 1 pill over the last four days. Do you know what that means? It means you are doing it! It just does to show how much of this is mental. You're going through withdrawals yet you feel like you have to continue taking that one pill and for what reason? That one pill isn't doing anything for you. All it's doing is making your brain and your body a prison. There's only one way to escape. There's only one way to make the pain subside. You have nothing to fear. Like I said above, you're already going through withdrawals so there is no reason to be afraid.

What do you say? With your determination you will just fine. The sooner you do this the sooner you can be free.

Hi doll...
Take a deep breath.... I know you're really scared.  This process is so much easier if you surrender to it.  The fear of the w/d is making this tougher on you.  You've prepared yourself and the only way out is through it.  I would jump now...
Do as Sara said and get in a warm bath.  I used (still do) a heck of a lot of lavender bath oil.  It's calming.  Make yourself some Sleepy Time tea, and do whatever you can to distract yourself.  The fear of the process is often worst than the process itself.  You can do this girl...Believe in yourself.
