Things are looking good aside from waking up feeling like there was a 50 lb weight strapped to my body (took about 30 min just to get out of bed) I'm feeling pretty good today.  I'm thinking the w/d will subside within 2 more days, and I'm pretty sure yesterday was the worst of it.  

For those of you who want to quit but are too afraid of the withdrawals, do it trust me it's worth it.  They can be uncomfortable, but they aren't unbearable.  The worst part honestly is wanting to take something and the depression, but once you realize this is all in your head, time goes by really fast.  Good luck to all of you who are in the same boat as me.

I agree, it is so worth it! Day 5 and never want to turn back! Every day it gets better, tho you may have a down day, but I think the anxiety before you finally quit is worse then quitting. Also, tapering was worse for me, because it drug out the wd. I am so happy I decided to say f it and just quit! You can do it, especially with all of the support in here. I couldn't do it without you guys! <3
