    I would DEFINITELY find another doctor. Find a doc who is a specialist in pharmacology as well as psychology.  DO NOT go on a benzo. You will become addicted. What other meds are you taking?

    Hi .

    I can definitely say that no matter how much medication you are currently taking and currently struggling with , You Can Do It........

    There came a time in my life when all the medication I was taking stopped working for me.

    Like yourself, I have a story , always wanted to be in someone else's life, always uncomfortable in my own skin. Until I found (What I thought was the solution) pills, and I used them for over 25years.

    I was on every pill for every ill.

    I was taking over 50 pills a day just to function, ( I know that sounds mad ) but that was my reality.

    There is hope and there are plenty of other people I've seen recovered from that hopeless place you're in at the moment.

    Well done reaching out because I know how difficult it is , I used to be so full of fear, fear of everything, fear of talking to people, fear of detoxing, fear of life in general.

    I found that talking about what's driving you to take 18 Zopiclone a day , really helps.

    I'm over 2months Zopiclone free and its great 👍 , and at the start I took a lot but I was so broken inside, I had to change or die.

    You Mentioned You Were On A Lot Of Other Meds, My Advice Would Be To Tackle One At A Time And Take It Slowly.

    The Very Best Of Luck On Your Journey. I Hope Things Work Out For You And Any Time That You Need A Check In. Mail me.

      How did you cut down on the zopiclone, did you have any side effects and was it long before you were able to sleep naturally. I have been buying them for a couple of months but realized that I am already in deep trouble. I just want to cut back safely.

      What a pain. I'm starting a detox with help this week. I'm an alcoholic, managed to pack that up ages ago but switched addiction when I discovered sleeping pills online. Am so angry, it hot me just as badly hooked fast. A day at a time I will throw myself into detox. I'm going to have to introduce NA meetings, still do AA and sober and I cannot risk going back. Good luck yourself.

    With the right doctor you can and you will. I would check in to a detox clinic though. One where your psychiatrist Wil visit you CNA check on your progress. You can definitely to it I have no doubt. I have don't it before but sadly messed it up and picked up again. So now I am starting over.
