Riding the journey from hell to healing on a wave of creativity. I write songs, paint, and am currently in the process of rebuilding my life after 7 years of neurological injury caused by a prescription medicine. I am working on a documentary film about this (TOXSICK Film). The aim is to spread awareness, and share the power of hope and creativity in healing.

'Best Day' - sample for a new song recorded in the moment
I am currently working on a documentary film whilst trying to make a full recovery from BIND (Benzodiazepine Induced Neurological Dysfunction) and rebuild my life. Whilst working on the main songs for the soundtrack I'm writing some new ones at the end of each recording session. This is an idea for a new track - 'Best Day'

Beautiful voice ❤
Thank you so much for doing what you do! My grammar is horrible at the moment so I apologize. The benzo community so appreciates your dedication, authenticity, and love. Music is such a a healing mechanism. Many don’t utilize it. There needs to be an outlet for an individual while going through such intense suffering. Art, yoga, music, self expression. Etc. thanks so much Emma for being you and sharing your story! 😊
Thank you Alana - this is an incredibly kind message. I'm completely with you regarding music -and the need for outlets for people going through suffering. We live in such a 'cold', disconnected world sometimes, when connection - to others, ourselves and the natural world around us, is one of the core fundamentals of healing and wellbeing, yet often overlooked. I appreciate you and all you do too. Wishing you a great start to 2025! P.S your grammar is great :)
You do need a cardio work-up and I find it an insult to injury to reject someone with abnormal heart function. Have you looked into QT Long Syndrome? And POTS? I was diagnosed with POTS, but the Rheumatologist that diagnosed it said I shouldn't worry about it as there is nothing I can do about it. It is a debilitating condition and is so easy dismissed/minimised. Maybe they will approve a Rheumatologist, who might do a tilt table test, for POTS?
MILLIONS OF LIVES DESTROYED.ALL OVER THE WORLD. EVERYWHERE. FOR 65 YEARS. THEY ALL KNEW. ALL OF THEM. MANY ARE DEAD. MANY MANY. MANY. THE SUFFERING IS BEYOND HORRIFIC. BRAIN DAMAGE BRAIN DAMAGE BRAIN DAMAGE.
Keep going, Emma. You are important and valued by all of us. You will find it hard to believe that they can do this to you. Yes, it is hard to fathom. WE WILL STOP THIS. FILE A FORMAL, DETAILED, COMPLAINT TO YOUR LOCAL MEDICAL BOARD, AND THE DEA,. AND FDA, ETC.ETC. ETC. YES. THEY ARE CRIMINALS. ALL FOR MONEY.
YES. YES. YES..JUST KEEP GOING.
KEEP GOING. JUST KEEP GOING.
Just KEEP GOING.WE KNOW. WE KNOW. THERE ARE MILLIONS OF US. ALL OVER THE WORLD. We will put a stop to this!
PSYCHIATRY IS A BIG FRAUD. THEY HAVE BEEN DISABLING, DESTROYING, AND KILLING PATIENTS FOR 65 YEARS.DO YOU VALUE YOUR HEALTH AND FUTURE? NEVER, EVER, GO THERE.DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT.
THEY WILL DESTROY YOU AND YOUR FUTURE. YOU CAN NEVER TRUST THEM. EVER. THEY NEED YOUR MONEY $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
NEVER TRUST THEM. THEY WILL DESTROY YOU. THEY DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR HEALTH OR YOUR FUTURE. THEY MIGHT EVEN KILL YOU, AS THEY HAVE KILLED MANY. THIS IS LITERALLY TRUE.
YOU CAN'T TRUST ANY OF THEM. THEY WILL DESTROY YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE FUTURE.
They all knew what would happen to you. Every one of them.
YOU WILL NEVER BE OK IF YOU TAKE THOSE DRUGS. NEVER. BRAIN DAMAGE BRAIN DAMAGE BRAIN DAMAGE BRAIN DAMAGE. MILLIONS OF LIVES AND FUTURES DESTROYED. MILLIONS. ALL OVER THE WORLD. FOR THE PAST 65 YEARS.BUT YOU WON'T FIND OUT HOW BRAIN DAMAGED YOU ARE UNTIL YOU TRY TO STOP THEM. DO YOU GET IT NOW? THIS IS VERY, VERY, MISLEADING!
Where can I watch the film?
Hey. It’s in pre-production right now. There will be a proof of concept short version released around Spring time. Currently raising the funds to make the feature. I’ll release updates here along the way
@EmmaHames I am so traumatized by the Mental Health System in general nevermind being on Valium 20 mgs for how many years. Makes me sick. Cannot wait till your film comes out! This needs to he addressed already.
@jolenekindiak8849 I'm so sorry to hear that, it's awful what is happening to so many, including yourself. I hope that you're finding the right doors to healing and step by step getting there. Some, very sadly, aren't even aware what's happening to them. Aiming to get the feature film out next year (subject to funding this year). Wishing you a happy start to 2025 (and beyond!)
@EmmaHames thanks so much ♥
Pls tell me the full story , then i will try to take action and we all should aware about the crimes 😢😢😮😮
They are CRIMINALS. THEY ALL KNEW. EVERY ONE OF THEM. FOR 65 YEARS.
Xans are really scary!
I had that when i got off Xanax then i went on valium for 3 years and it eventually went away i highly suggest you go on valium and then microdose yourself off it after a year or two and that should fix it i took myself off it cause i was ready and was also put on a muscle relaxer called tizanadine which helped my heart muscle calm down try asking your dr for that medicine until you feel ready to stop.
THEY NEEDED MONEY.THEY HAVE BEEN DESTROYING LIVES, BRAINS, HEALTH, AND FUTURES FOR 65 YEARS.
THEY SHOULD ALL BE IN PRISON.
If your withdrawing from anything smoke weed guys it helps I was too sick recently and had Valium as part of my script took it for three days first day back smoking weed don't want to be stuck with any long term downsides of it
I am 47 years old, i had severe panic disorder in my 30s. I was prescribed Xanax 1 mg 3 times a day for almost nine years. Got out of a bad relationship around the age of 40 and surprisingly i quit Xanax cold turkey with very little withdrawal symptoms. I was like a switch had been flipped, no more anxiety or panic issues at all. Flash forward to March 18 2024 i had my first of two heart attacks. The switch is flipped yet again panic attacks are back i was put back on benzos im trying to get off them but this time around its been hell. Doctor are no help. I am truly lost yet again.

Bonjour Emma , Je peux vous assurer que je suis exactement dans le même état d’esprit et physiquement aussi . Je me reconnais tellement dans ce que vous dites. Il est tellement difficile de se battre pour soit même quand on a été endommagé par la médecine. Le stress et la colère nous affecte beaucoup mais ils sont aussi notre fuel . Je me bas en se moment avec l’assurance invalidité qui n’admet pas mon état. Je sais une chose je gagnerai comme je l’ai toujours fait mais c’est épuisant Cordialement Dave
maybe take the gum out of your mouth when youre giving an interview. Disgusting.
How long were you on the drugs for?
4 years (despite asking to come off them very early on)
I love Xanax 10 years later
Glad to hear the event went so well!
It’s truly criminal the numbers of us who suffer in silence, even worse is the gaslighting and shaming by medical profession ….. I’ve also lost four years of my life, my family has suffered and our dreams shattered by a “ child’s dose “ . I struggle daily with severe tinnitus, horrid body burning and sleep issues. I live on second at a time. Would have ended it if not for my family … These are toxic drugs
@@chas1819 I’m interested in hearing your full story. Can you send me a DM on Instagram (@toxsickfilm)?
Hi Emma. Would you like mine? I’m 5 & a half years protracted antidepressant Withdrawal.
you tappered with valium or you CT it? sorry for the question and in what dosis you were? im about to start tappering clonazepam thank you, a hug from mexico
and always remember its not your fault.
💛
hugs from mexico, i understand you and im with you
thank you :)
Good got you but God you are gorgeous
off to hornyjail!
Benzos only work for a few weeks before they don't work anymore taking them for that long must of been awful
Omfg I've gone through benzo withdrawal from max legal dose after few months use ,I've withdrawn from higher doses twice purchased from a black market supply addiction ,I've quit cocaine ciggertettes alcohol and opiates all from strong addictions they were a walk in the park to how horrific benzo withdrawl is ,it's a spectrum of how severe it affects different people and for me nothing touches how awful benzo withdrawal is ,I've learnt how to go through the months of recovery and manage it ,the physical withdrawals are very bad for a few weeks feverish etc but the anxiety and feeling of impending doom is the worst part and it goes on for months, my advice is use l theanine 5htp and gabba to seriously improve recovery process the other secret is to take gabapentin for a couple weeks it kick starts your gabba receptors however your not gona get prescribed it fir that purpose
Definitely long term autonomic disfunction, often triggered by benzodiazepine use or withdrawal. Strengthening your Vagus nerve is the way out. Applying cold on the side of the neck,splashing face 20 times with cold water,taking a cold shower. There is nothing wrong with your heart, it's the autonomic nervous system. Ironically, specialist who yreat disautonomia are usually cardiologists, but look for a disautonomia specialist. I was prescribed a medication to lower the heart rate and stabilise it.
Would feel better if success in one year. And you Are young.
How did you manage withdrawals?
What is this happened when you were 70?
Never should come off, but watch out if you lose your doc. Now docs afraid to fill your old Rx.
Where are the success stories in one year?
Hi Emma, I would also like to share. March 2020, the start of the lockdown in France, I started having panic attacks and since I didn't know what it was I thought I was having a heart attack. I went to the emergency room and they told me it wasn't serious, that it was a panic attack and that I had to see my GP. Between leaving the emergency room and a video appointment with a GP, 3 days went by during which I had 4 horrible attacks per day. The doctor prescribed me 15 mg of valium and didn't warn me about the risks either. After a month I had no more pills in the box and so I stopped the treatment and then my life changed because I had a whole bunch of terrible symptoms, I went to the emergency room again and they told me that you should never stop taking Valium like that. I went back to see the GP who wrote me a new prescription but the damage was done because taking Valium again put me in a great agoraphobia and anhedonia and I had to stop working. I stayed in bed for 2 years, today I am better and I have returned to work but I will never forget.
Hi Emma, we have been through a horrible time because of benzo, My husband lives in hospitals for mores then two years and two years before were hell at home. I would like to share as well. He is in a very bad shape now, but I have videos, pictures snd documents, which do not help even today to my husband to have an attention of his doctors to his suffering. How can we be part of your " work" ? How can we subscribe to this event? Thanks a lot!
Hey, I'm so sorry to hear that, it's story that absolutely needs to be told. I would suggest following our instagram (@TOXSICKFILM) where we post regular updates, including the link to our upcoming event. Sending healing wishes to your husband 🙏💚
Also feel free to reach out directly at contact@toxsick.org. Hope to connect at the event next week, Best, Emma
Bonjour Emma tout mon soutien pour le travail que vous avez fait. Bonne chance pour la projection. J’ai hâte de pouvoir voire cela Cordialement Dave
Merci Beaucoup Dave! Enchanté!
Nous sommes légion et avons des amis communs. Enchanté aussi 😊
@@davecat6661 Absolument :)
Well done for bringing awareness to the human rights issue I believe 😢
Thank you for sharing these tips Emma. I find them extremely useful. I am so sorry that you went through such a traumatic time, I am sure some days still feel like hell, but it gives me strength to see that you are in a better place. Even to do this video is fantastic...I have a lot of love & respect for you. I am so proud of you and hope and pray that you and everyone else affected by benzo's, will continue to see that light in their lives begin to get brighter, little by little. Hope & Faith can be so difficult to feel when we experience the horrendous effects/ symptoms of this drug, but daily practices in self-compassion are key for me. Breathwork has helped me immensely. Take care beautiful 😍 keep shining 💛
