I spoke to my doc and he said basically it was daft but can see my reasons for going straigt withdrawl. Now the withdrawl itself is interesting, i basically feel horrible. No memory, getting zap all over body, heart palps, anxious, can't sleep, spats of mania. it is crazy. my sister in law who is a mental health nurse basically said i will be like this for minimum 2 weeks but in some ppl these feelings can last about 3 months.
I still take my bedranol beta blocker tho, as this seems to help.
