Cold turkey issues

Was taking 300mg a day for the past 7 months. I will not be reinstating because I cannot keep them around for the taper I always find an excuse to use more and skip days etc so I discarded the rest of my script 10 days ago.

I thought I was in the clear after day 4 but everything has hit me hard at day 7 surprisingly. I’m at day 10 now and I still feel like I’m going crazy, I have to be at the peak by now right? I just feel like I have fish eyes and keep them wide open and filled with anxiety. I take my adhd meds as prescribed and it’s just instant anxiety after I dose instead of me being productive and motivated.

I tried to run this off today and did 5 miles but I don’t really feel any better just nonstop crippling anxiety. My co workers notice my fish eyes and ask if I’m ok and I tell them yeah it’s like everyone can see there’s something wrong with me which makes me freak out even more.

I want to lay down but when I do I want to get up. I want to move but when I do I want to stop. I want to eat but when I start I want to stop that’s what it feels like for everything.

I’m very sensitive to medications but I didn’t think it would last 10 days and only getting worse. It just feels like I’m going to be stuck like this FOREVER.

Can someone please give me any tips or tell me that I should be at the peak or at least close to it by now because I didn’t expect it to be this long. I have to be coming close to the relief point soon right? I’ve taken my vitamin D and B12 and fish oil like I normally take so I know I’m not deficient in those areas. I know it’s the GABA withdrawal I’ve ruled out everything else.
