Be careful if your coming off them on your own . I don't know what meds your on but when going off them at the start , the numbness in the mind will be still there and after a few weeks going off them when the numbness starts leaving you will get very tired and the mind will start racing a bit more than usual .
If that happens with you , see whats going on in your mind why your on the meds in the 1st place cause that will what happen and then what happens when the mind is like that all of the fear and dread will come back into your life and the mind will then start to panic , do deep breathing in between and sit with the emotions .
It' can be done .
My advive if your going off them , do a 12 step program cause coming off meds the mind goes into over load with thoughts .
I put you onto another great fella he saved my life "Fr . Anthony De Mello"
He's simple to listen too .
AND BY THE WAY IM NOT ADVISING YOU GO OFF MEDS cause saying that to a person is dangerous cause they could end up in a river if someone advised to go off them .
