Is it possible to get side effects quitting less than 100 mg after about a year ?

I have been on about a year maybe 6 months of only 1 100 mg capsule a day . Then I started dumping out half and stayed on that the rest of the time. The last month or so I think I've only taken 50 mg Max a day maybe less. But when I don't take it I get waves it anxiety/insomnia/body doesn't feel good

I'm just surprised that such a little amount could do that ? Or is it in my head ? I have anxiety and take Ativan and a piece of clonidine a day and even with those I get anxious til I dose gabapentin

Just coming here for accountability

I gave in tonight I think it had been almost a week. Last time I made it about a week and that was it. Seems like Everytime I make it to that mark and then lose control.

For anybody at a week or about to give in it's not worth it. It really didn't even feel that good. It didn't make me feel some.magical way and I feel disgusting because I watched porn again.

It seems when I am about a week in my brain forgets all those things and makes it seem like I NEED to do it. Or even makes me think I NEED to make myself horny so I can do it it's crazy. I really want to put this behind me. It's not worth constantly worrying about sinning. Obviously we are all sinners but I hate constantly thinking "I know I will sin in this particular way in the next week"

It's like always in the back of my mind

Standing blood pressure seems way too high but comes down

I took my blood pressure standing 3 times within a 5 min period because I've felt like my heart rate increases when I stand up lately so I wanted to see what my BP was doing. The first diastolic reading of 125 is very high

Sitting my bp is fairly normal

What could cause this ?

I feel like they should have kept Shane for at least half the seasons

He just added that perfect amount of drama since he was like an enemy almost like neagan but instead he was right there in the group the whole time. So it was like this constant tension. + The dynamic with him and Lori and Rick always made you wonder what was going to happen next in the love triangle

I feel like they kinda went crazy killing people off and ruined the whole show. You get left with a cast of people torwards the end that don't hold a candle to the original crew with the RV and campsite/farm

What the hell is wrong with me

Does anybody ever just feel like your in the twilight zone ? Like everything is off. Including colors. Lights create an unsettling HD effect,contrast feels off,everything feels and looks too intense. It creates a great deal of anxiousness and dizziness. I've been dealing with this everyday. I recently had blood work that came back ok besides high cholesterol but not too high,and low vit d but nothing too extreme. I started a D supplement after. I track my blood pressure and it stays ok besides when I'm really stressed. I track my blood oxygen and heart rate and it seems fine

So what is happening to me ?

I am the most stressed instart driver

Broke.

​

My rear time has a hole in the outer wall that I've plugged and replugged about 8 times

​

My phone is disconnected so I have to use WiFi only and only go to stores with WiFi and then I have to find WiFi again to complete order

​

The base of my phone is cracked so my charger won't stay in especially in the car

​

I am diagnosed with anxiety and panic attacks medically. I left my last job where I was making decent money due to this condition

​

So I feel like I'm currently the most stressed driver in my state at least.

Can not having an orgasm or even looking at p*rn make you feel sick ?

I know that's a weird question and I always hear you feel better as the days go. But I'm at around a week nofap . Never seem to make it passed here. Because I already have anxiety. And I feel worse without doing it... And I feel like that body ache you feel when you're getting sick. I feel drained and I can't sleep at night. Has anyone else went through this ?

How TF do you not have anxiety attack when derealization hits

And by hits I mean gets worse cuz it seems to always be there. But like driving for example tonight I felt like I had just dropped some acid and was smoking a blount to the dome. Blurred vision,heart rate increase,fear

​

The only way I can explain it is that gas that bain uses in batman I get scared af and everything looks distorted. I get tunnel vision and the urgent need to get tf home. It's scary and seems to happen daily now

Manson signed postcard

It's not hand drawn like some of his other cards may have been. But still cool. I have a multiple page letter from him as well. (Both this and the letter were to my dad)

​

My dad communicated with him for years in prison. For some reason he started calling my dad his uncle "juss"

​

I have no idea why. The letter is almost impossible to understand because of his crazy hand writing and riddles. He would say stuff like "the birds are singing today" instead of "it's been a good day"

​

Ive thought about selling them but I have to get them authenticated . I know 1000 percent they are real though.

​

I feel like I should hold onto them. I've seen some letters and cards to for hundreds. But that's not really worth letting go.

Anyone who got breathing issues from vaping healed ?

I have smoked cigs and vaped on and off for almost 20 years . But never really had a cough or anything. I would quit or switch to dip tobbaco and never was concerned about "real" lung damage

Well about 5 months ago I started buying disposables again and have been literally blazing down on raz etc for 5 months all day everyday. I recently started feeling like I wasn't breathing right at night and sometimes during the day. So it made my anxiety way worse. I quit for good yesterday. And I'm hoping to heal from this crap. Nicotine lozenges don't even touch the craving. But I know breathing is much more important 🫡

Has anyone developed pots or a sensitive nervous system/heart due to panic and anxiety ?

I feel very defeated. I went to an appointment last week. Heart rate was 120 + the entire time . They did an EKG and said "looks good" but I didn't believe them.

I have to wait almost 90 days for cardiology appointment. And I fear I will walk in there with my heart racing panicked. Everyday is hell. I feel like something is wrong with me.

My heart rate goes crazy at the slightest bit of stress and I feel like I need to run home and lay down.

Earlier I went to the store and my heart rate was at 150 + when I tried to check out and I had to go to the bathroom. I barely made it out the store.

I take my bloodpressure daily and it seems in the normal range when sitting but elevated for a brief time when I first stand up. Along with my heart rate.

I feel like I get winded and racing heart from doing things I used to do no problem. I just ran up and down my stairs 5 times (set of 5 stairs) and felt like I couldn't keep going

If I'm stressed and do something like that my heart rate goes out of control. A few weeks ago I went to drop off an instacart delivery and as soon as I started up the stairs at these apartments my heart rate went to 160 + and I barely made it to the top. I called an ambulance and had a panic attack in the parking lot. My heart rate slowly came down

I just can't keep dealing with this everyday. I can't work a normal job. I can barely even do instacart.

Anyone gone through similar and if so,what helped you return to normal ?

Blood pressure/pulse when standing seems to elevate very quickly

I've been having this issue for awhile now and Ativan for anxiety and clonidine doesn't really help in a meaningful way. I noticed sometimes when I stand up my heart rate goes from like 69 to 120 instantly

And my heart rate goes crazy at the slightest bit of stress. For example I went to the store earlier and I got to the self checkout. As soon as it was time to scan and swipe my heart rate went to 150 and I had to walk to the bathroom. I came back and my heart rate would not come down

I went outside and the heat made it worse. THEN I realize I had a flat tire.

Everyday I'm struggling with this. It's like my heart rate waits on an important task,and then elevates and makes me feel like I need to lay or sit down. It's very scary and it's stopping me from working a normal job among other things. My cardiologist appointment is up to 90 days away

I just wanted to share a positive story

I met a woman online in an anxiety group. We both have and have had severe anxiety issues. I became friends with her and we talked daily. At one point I thought we were going to end up dating. But she had an on and off again relationship with her ex. So I just kind of gave up on that but we stayed friends

(For context she had an abortion and immediately afterward she got severe debilitating anxiety)

She ended up pregnant again and was convinced that she couldn't handle the pregnancy. Her own mom even told her to abort. She ordered the abortion pills as well. I kept telling her to choose life,that she could do it and that God will forgive her for her past abortion.

She was willing to listen but I could tell she was terrified and wasn't just making excuses. She really did have issues mentally that were making her think she couldn't handle it. She ended up taking the abortion pill. But by the grace of God she threw it up. And ended up going through with the pregnancy. She told me it's only because I kept telling her to choose life. And yesterday her healthy baby girl cohen was born !

So for one it shows that our voices DO matter and have an effect on people. This woman was like anyone you see debate videos who claim "clump of cells" and don't see abortion as murder. But her mind was changed. And she is so happy she has a beautiful baby girl now,and I'm sure she feels much stronger.

And two: only met her because of the horrible anxiety we both suffer. If I never would have suffered with anxiety I never would have met her.and if I never would have met her she most likely would have aborted another child,because nobody in her life was telling her to choose life. So everything happens for a reason. Even suffering sometimes.

How can I stop blood pressure obsession

I need a really good way that my mind will accept. I wake up and my BP is normal . And it can get elevated randomly throughout the day like 140s over 100 then it will go down after I take it one or 2 more times

I'm tapering off clonidine rn which is a bp med that I was prescribed for anxiety so it makes my compulsion to check my bp worse since it can raise BP if you come off too fast. But I'm on a very low dose. Like a quarter of a 0.1 mg a day max

But when I leave the house I start to wonder about my bp. And I really need to stop this

Flap of skin like tissue under my tongue

I'm just wondering what this could be ? It's painless and moves around like a flap of skin. So it's part of my tongue but at the end of that string/vein area on the edge underneath

Any idea what this could be ?

I get blurry vision during high anxiety (so tired of this)

Went to Walmart earlier but then started feeling like I was getting a pain when I breathe then. So I went to the house and on the way I started having rapid heart rate.

Then everything kind of settled down at the house, I think it was acid reflux related

Anyway I went back to Walmart to force myself to go I hate letting anxiety "win" so I'm I went in and I felt weird af dizzy and then blurry vision the whole time and elevated heart rate. The blurry vision lasted all the way til I got home. It's happened before as well but it's a weird symptom of anxiety attack. Does anyone else deal with vision issues because of panic ?

I made it like 12 days and gave in. How can I get passed that 2 week mark ?

It seems like I didn't really have the urge to look at porn or masterbate for 2 Weeks. It got to the point where I was like trying to think of sex because I was worried my sex drive and libido were "gone"

But instead that led me to repeat the same cycle. . Disgusting porn and that feeling of "I messed up again"

I'm trying not to let it defeat me. I mean 12 days was a long time for me. I think I just feel alone and depressed and give in. No gf no wife. Idk if things will work out in the future with my long distance female friend or not . So it's just a bunch of uncertainty and feeling almost like forever alone that triggers it.

Instacart sucks

My exp lately is they flood me with shitty orders when I first log on and when the system detects I'm not accepting them I don't get anymore batches maybe one every 30 min.

I'm 99 percent sure they do this to punish drivers for not being a slave. Especially since it's Friday and the same thing is happening again
