@tyrel oh man, I had that same feeling. To me it felt like there was a cat scratching one area deep In my brain, like deep in there! I had the same thing but it's long gone now! It will go away!
@@AngiePeacockMSW Hi Angie glad to see people actuallly talking about this, i,m currently trying to come off alcahol and i,m on 50 mg of valium for sleep, when i finally can get off the drink i,ve been told to taper solwly and things shouldn,t be that bad, did you do a slow taper or go cold turkey, would love your advice!
@@paulbillington8290 I tapered incorrectly for a year and a half - tapered the way my doctor told me, then he cold turkey me. I do consultations with people if that’s something you need: www.Angiepeacock.com
My tip for sleep is to put aside my Atheism and pray. I pray to whatever energy there is out there that is healing and calming. The other tip is truly embracing the idea of radical acceptance. Radical acceptance is powerful when I truly feel it. Mostly that feeling comes in glimmers.
This would help people dealing with withdrawal especially insomnia - I was prescribed 0.5mg xanax after a surgery and I took it longer than prescribed. Unknowingly I stopped taking it thinking I no longer need it. And the days to follow were a pure hell. I was anxious and I couldn't get any sleep. I barely slept for a week which made my anxiety worse. Thankfully, I am into ayurveda so I researched and took wintercherry(ashwagandha), Indian pennywort(brahmi) and valerian root(tagara) extract. And I finally got 8 hours of good sleep that night and woke up with no anxiety. I hope this helps anyone dealing with withdrawals.
I believe I experience the exact same thing! It has something to do with the brain's transition from sleep to waking, clearly. And that the damage to our brains is reflecting a dysfunction, still. Not fully healed yet. But, keep going! Don't go back!
Hello all. I wonder does anyone else experiences this? Waking up filled with what I can only describe as absolute DREAD . It's like everything is hopeless and bad and threatening and there is no future. It is like everyone I care about is about to go away for ever. I sometimes will be trembling for a few seconds. It's torture. This sensation lasts til I get up and distract myself by reading or just wandering around the house. No one believes me that it is so horrible, but it is. I'm in my third year off antidepressants and occasional use of Ativan (when it got really bad). I was prescribed them for 25 years. I honestly think the prescription drugs contributed to this. I don't know 😕.
Yes, I feel the same way. It’s like a switch goes off first thing in the morning and I feel like I am being tortured. The Dread, the shaking, the hopelessness. All of that hits like a freight train. The not being believed it also awful. I believe you if that matters or counts.
Damn ladies. Seems like allot of women are on benzos. I have the same issue with instant depression when I wake up. Dread of the day. Once I get out of the house I'm usually a little better. I've been prescribed opiates for years for cancer. They have tried to get me to try benzos multiple times and I did before I realized how bad they were. But I think it's the fact that you can't just stop taking these medications without going through hell. I feel for you ladies
I'm also getting of Benzos after 20years. (Still on Prozac, long term goal to get off that too). This really helps..your comment and reply from a lady who says it will go away . So I know what to expect. I hope it's getting better? Thank you.
Watching this 3:00 in the morning. 13 months off benzos and my sleep is terrible. I have to put my hands on my chest to try and calm down all the adrenaline this is bloody awful. 😢😢😢
Brilliant Angie, I was the same only sleeping about 20 miss to one hour a night. The meds I xame off were very strong tricyclics which were the core of my treatment for 40 years plus loads else. It did take at least 11 months but then slowly crept up. Now 2 years off, I am proud that most nights I sleep for about 6 hours with no meds at all!!!! One thing that helped early on was not too stress about not getting it at night but to go across 24 hours and if you feel you can sleep some other time then go for it because it's mire about resting and getting what you can as you are able rather than getting anxious overnight. Over time as you begin to sleep you can slowly shift back to night time. Your body will naturally return overtime to a more usual pattern. I also so echo that radical acceptance bit, that alone just helped so much, not to fight it but allow and accept this process is so hard and you will feel rubbish for a good long timeXx
Thank you for this . I have not listened to all of it , but I like the "radical acceptance" of "you won't sleep" . It is so true...I have had insomnia for weeks and weeks, months...years... tapering and when I was on them and not tapering. I just need to be like , yep, this is tapering, I don't sleep. Accept it instead of fighting it and wasting energy on frustration. lucky for me I do not work, so I can sleep in the next day . I have to get some sleep otherwise I get very run down and sick. I don't know how anyone can hold down a job with Benzo Insomnia, incredibly tough.
Thank you for all you've been doing for our community, Angie! Thz thing that helps me is radical acceptance. Accepting whatever may happen the next day if I do not fall asleep is what makes me sleep. The other thing is yoga nidra that works sometimes and even allowed to nap which for me is huge! Wishing you all the best ❤
I’m really struggling. I’m hitting 11 months and I got hit with a massive insomnia wave. I haven’t had this since 7 months ago. But I’m having all these intense surges and awful brain sensations. What the crap!! I’m so upset and scared and cant stop sobbing. A lot of impending doom type feeling. Just feels so alone. I’m praying it passes but I’m so scared shit is going to get worse. I’ve been in this wave 10 days but the past 2 days it has gotten 1000x worse. Im praying this gets better. Im holding on to that hope because there is no other option but to hold on. Your videos bring me so much hope.
I have all of this you are talking about. When I lay down I start the rumination, obsessive thoughts, which would amp all the fear and surges. My brain is beyond wired and I feel like I could run a marathon. 100%. This shit sucks! I listen to Jason on my bad nights!! His work is great
K I am right there with you depending on what your going off of everyone seems to experience varying degrees of different symptoms. I want you to know your not alone. I have been dealing with the same for 3 weeks. Angie really helped me realize we are all not going mad and these drugs really mess with our brain chemistry. Just keep pushing thru. Surround yourself with positive energy and people. I mostly emphasize lots of self care like I mean tons!! Lol best wishes!
Great video Angie, a lot of what you talk about are things that I have tried along the way, some helped and other things didn’t work for me. I think the most important thing for me was that if you could not sleep was rest. Rest was still better then being up and around. I would lay in my recliner with my blanket in the dark and just breathe. All we can do is the best we can when we are on this journey. At 7 years off this month I have been getting more sleep then ever. The weather is also changing here in northern Ohio and I suppose that retiring the first of August has helped too. Thanks for all you do!
Excellent to hear! Yes, sometimes certain things will work for a period of time and then they stop working all together. Even just laying there and breathing IS doing something even if it doesn’t feel like it. You could call that mindfulness or present moment awareness even. Or radical accepting the situation and that being all you could do.
This made me vividly remember what I’d blissfully forgotten- insomnia after opiate cold turkey. I used ASMR, I listened to University Courses in Roman and Greek mythology & stuff like that, Body scans, yoga Nidra, I counted backwards from 300 and visualized each number, you can add color, shape, movement… all to distract. I listened to police radio scanner. And now I have a long list of people I listen to to fall asleep listening to…
Thanks for making the video. I will look at these. Hopefully soon my sleep will return so I can continue my taper. One thing that works when the insomnia is less severe is melatonin. I can tell that the insomnia is lifting when melatonin makes me sleepy again.
Insomnia , Zero motivation and Anhedonia. Could you please help me with those? I'm bedbound, can barely do anything everyday, I just stay in bed or on the couch. This Zero motivation is killing me, Please tell me it gets better, I can't stand it, it's freaking holocaust, hell.
What diet change did you make on month 11 that helped you? Thank you for this treasure trove of information, Angie. CBTi made things much work and then the therapist blamed us for not doing it right, urgh. What helped: "boring" science podcasts and aiming for RESTING, even if no sleep. I love that you talk about loving sleep again, I can't wait for that feeling.
Thanks for making this video. I can relate and agree with a lot of what you've said. I'm 16 months off antidepressants after taking them for 12 years. My sleep isn't too bad, but I have other issues. Videos like this make me feel less alone. I know I'm not alone, but sometimes it feels like I am. Thanks again. What helps me sleep is my night time routine where I wash my face, put on face cream, brush my teeth, etc. I keep my room dark and cool. I use white noise to cancel other annoying noises like my cats cleaning themselves which sometimes seems to activate my fight or flight response. Meditating helps me relax and calm down as well. It's weird because I feel like I've only been able to successfully meditate off the meds. Baths with Epsom salt seem to help me as well. Definitely a lot of good suggestions in the video.
I’m so glad you feel less alone and also that you were able to find a few good things that work for you. Those things will create new neural pathways and will be really good habits you have rewired when all of this is over. So great!
This might help somebody (SUPLIMENTS). First of all you need to get over that sleep anxiety and to be able to fall asleep even if it’s for half an hour. As supliments I use 1. Taurine 6g- try less (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOR ME) 2. 1000 mg magnesium (bisglycenate) 3. CBD OIL one teaspoon I take these right before sleep (not before I want to fall asleep but before the hour I usualy fall asleep). I heard that CBN oil is better so experiment if you can. REMEMBER YOU WILL HEAL. God bless you:)
Something that has helped me is taking the amino acids taurine, L-theanine and glycine. Even some forms of magnesium are good too, mainly magnesium glycinate and malate respectively. Then another incredibly good thing to have friends to talk to, as well as healthcare professionals who support you can help you through withdrawal from both benzodiazepines and alcohol. The mentioned amino acids plus magnesium also have some protective effect against withdrawal-induced grand mal seizures, which are a risk if one has taken benzodiazepines or drunk alcohol in high doses for a long time.
Does anyone have hypnic hallucinations? Like hallucinations between the dream and wake state-not a dream but not fully awake either? Sometimes see shapes, but sometimes see scary figures. It’s scary as hell.
Thank you so much for making this video, you probably saved me so much and time and effort, I was so unaware of what's happening to me but it all makes sense now OMG
Oh my gosh Angie thank you so much. I was only on benzos for 2 months and used sparingly and was going off Effexor. Been on many antidepressants for 21 yrs and the insomnia started. So good to know that I can survive this. Tears are streaming down knowing that what is happening is not just me. How can I get coaching from you?
Thank you for a wonderful video. I have has chronic insomnia for 3 years. I was originally prescribed Klonopin 0.5mg at bed for sleep and chronic anxiety. First year was good, but then went down hill when I didn't want to increase the medication. I started to develop insomnia then. I did a taper of 6 months and have been off since February. I still have not gotten my sleep back. I can either fall asleep but wake up in the middle of night, or can't get back to sleep. Sleep Hygiene has not helped. My doctors don't think its from the klonopin but i never had insomnia before I took klonopin. My new doctor wants me to try Buspar for Genaralized Anxiety. Thanks so much be well
Soft White Underbelly channel can be good for stories of real people, real people talking. That helps me get through the day, not music, but human voices talking, no script, just regular down to earth honest people ❤
I'm asleep very early now before 9pm. At the moment I wake up way too early in the morning and I'm super wired like I've drunk a double expresso. I will try listening to some of those things thanks.
@@AngiePeacockMSW the August flare up I had was really strange, I really was losing my marbles walking around. When I went to lie down I'd be in some kind of trance where I thought I was on a roller coaster. I'd rather avoid a repeat episode of that. I think it is probably cortisol rushes are waking me up early, a good thing to dampen down that effect is to drink tart cherry juice which boosts melatonin. I have accumulated a stock of all sorts of weird stuff in my kitchen cupboards.
I am on 3 months withdrawal so far. I was taking olanzapine. I did not have much symptoms just dry mouth. I have sleeping disturbances. I sleep 4h per day sometimes 6h so it is not as bad but still I feel tired once I wake up.
I'm going through Klonopin withdrawal right now ... On day 8 of only dozing off for 20 minutes or so a night... This is torture! ... Thank you for this video! It's 4am right now where I am and this video calmed me down a lot! I was having that panicky, chest caving in and on fire feeling and listening to you helped me through that ... I've been drinking 2 beers a night right before bed trying to use the to help me doze off which it does help to doze off but I think I feel worse when it goes out my system... Did you ever try a shot at night or a few beers while you were going through it?
Don’t do that!! It can make it worse. Alcohol acts on the same receptors as benzos so you’re basically taking a liquid benzo. Better to just cope with the sleep problems and they will heal on their own.
@@charliebates9098 There is, just go slower(more slowly). If you are on short acting Benzo, why not switch to longer acting one? (Valium). Also dietary changes (antiinflamatory diet) is important, probiotics,prebiotics. You do know that gut is "second brain" and most of neurotransmitters are made in gut not brain. Moving (if you can't go out, in your room) Breathing exercise (vagus nerve stimulation) Research everything you can about Gaba restoration, neuroprotective foods/supplements, neuroplasticity. Try each thing apart from other so you can tell what effects you. CBD if you are not on other meds. Hope it gets better, let us know how it's going, take care. 🙋
@@naomimara3340 thanks for the reply but I'm over it now... Took a long time but everything has gone back to normal for the most part... I still have this cramping tightening thing going on in my stomach sometimes that I have no clue where it came from but everything else is fine
@@charliebates9098 Oh, than I'm glad to hear that! 😊 Spread the word, there are succes stories too.👍 Ps.You started tappering 2 months ago, right? And you're already done. Then you weren't on a high dose (or hadn't been taking it too long, like many years?
I wanted to ask if it's normal to have hypersensitivity to every sound while you are trying to sleep ? I have insomnia after withdrawal and now I wake up with the tiniest sound! Is this permanent Angie?
Yes I had that too. I was never a light sleeper before but every sound would keep me up and I could hear things happening outside that I was never aware of before. No it’s not permanent. It’s part of withdrawal if you didn’t have that before coming off.
Huberman is a legend man I'm on 17mg of valium uk and I'm struggling with sleep and I do use red shifts light. Alan watts is my go too. Wow man u love Buddhism, ❤️ And breath work. And diet is everything mast cell activation, adrenaline ATP DTP production d2 receptors mashed melatonin wack. Light every cell in your body needs Light ✨️ every day most weak. ✨️ Good on you for giving us game.
@@AngiePeacockMSW I want to endure the withdrawal process but it’s so bad without sleep that sometimes I want to start taking it again. Hated the stuff too
Thanks for the video I mentioned how my brain and CNS just wouldn’t let me down that bottom rung into sleep Now a drug dictates how much sleep I get…. And, it’s not healthy sleep Sigh
@@AngiePeacockMSW Mirtazapine is as bad as Klonopin Not even sure what to taper I’m on 7.5 mirt and .75 k Should I switch to another benzo or go to a detox or treatment?
@@AngiePeacockMSW a long time ago mabey 4 years ago you did a video talking about intrusive thoughts .. Steven King satan type thoughts that lasted for about 18month.. You were right.. Mine lasted around 18 to 20months.. Your videos really helped me out seriously.. Blessings and thank you❤
Angie it is so nice seeing you live your best life. You’re amazing. I can usually get to sleep, just can’t stay asleep. It’s the waking up that is a huge problem for me. I can sometimes get back to sleep. The Breethe app is one I use to try to get back to sleep. However when 7 am hits I’m a mess. I can barely function through the day. Can’t sit or settle. I’m having a hard time with acceptance I think. I’m going to check out your recommendation and try to listen to Radical Acceptance? Was that it. My fears greatly revolve around eating and my stomach issues. They are crippling me. I would love to hear if you had these and what you did. If you have done something on this already could you please point me in that direction. If not please could you address this in an upcoming video. Thanks again so much for doing this. 💜
I am 13 months off 0.25 lorazapam and 11 months of of 1.25 mg of ambien. The lorazapam was short usage and ambien was for 15 years. I am now steeping pretty good. Just this week I started waking up at 3 with a huge surge. What the heck? Why is this happening now. .
Hey Angie. 🖤 I lost the ability to feel tired and sleepy after taking benzos. I tapered them but still wasn't able to sleep. Went 3 days no sleep so psychiatrist put me on Quetiapine / Seroquel for sleep. Which I'm currently still on. Still never feel sleepy or tired at night. Do you think it's possible for sleep to return if I taper off of this?
I've been dealing with a small xanax addiction that has being on and off for the last maybe 3 months. I know I can shake it and get back to normal if I just persevere, but my multiple sleepless nights in a row and literally debilitating anxiety is what brought me here today. I just purchased Gaba, Saffron, Ashwaghanda, and Moringa supplements in a panic to try to correct what is happening with my body/brain. What is your take on these supplements?
Just about to start my second withdrawal after extreme usage daily for 3 months. I was clean 6 years and started again after some lifecrisis happened. I'm absolutely horrified that I will go through another episode like back in 2018. It was 6 months of pure hell, psychosis, panic attacks etc I couldn't handle another one. But then I had been doing them daily for 5 years, this time only 3 months so I hope I will not get it as bad. But I'm dreading it. I feel it every morning now the sweats, flu symptoms, panic attacks, anxiety etc I don't know when I will do the jump. Problem is I self medicate and have to leave urine tests now etc for work so om utterly fucked. They don't give out benzos in my country easily, not even when I told them last time I did them daily for 5 years and I was almost dying from withdrawal. Wish me luck
@@AngiePeacockMSW Thanks for the answer. That would be optimal, but they very rarely give you benzos in my country, even for acute withdrawal. You get Atarax (Hydroxizin) or Theralen (Alimemazin) which I dread both. The do nothing but give me bad creeps in the legs and absolutely zero against the withdrawal. My blggest wish would be to get a long taper on diazepam, from a doctor. But that would never happen here sadly.
Omg 11 months of 20 minutes to an hour of sleep 😮!!!? There's no way I can do that I drive a very very heavy/big truck for a living if my mind isn't right I could make a mistake and kill someone.... How the hell am I supposed to not sleep for 11 months.... Gah
You had periods of zero sleep? I keep watching this video to help me push through. Dr wants me back on lexapo I tapper 20mg to 10mg fast then slow from 10mg to 0.4mg, then I jumped off a little over 2 weeks ago. Anxiety, insomnia, 4 nights 0 sleep. Makes me feel more fearful. I want to get through this without having to go back on. May need you guidance.
30 min - 1 hour the first year. I slept 4 hours broken at 11 month mark, year 2 was like 1-4 hours, all over the place. Next year was 3-5 broken. Now I sleep 7-8 and it's restful and I sleep like a baby. I wake up once to pee but I think that's perimenopause.
@@ellaMel4632 About. Two and a half years but I was on it prior a year before I started Taking it this pastime. I have also been on other meds years before that.
So Angie , you did not take one supplement or herb then through the process ? How did you keep from going delirious ? Its HORRIBLE ! 1200 o’clock , 1 2 , 3 , 4, 5 o clock not sleeping
I suffer from bad insomnia and this makes me so aggressive. Is this normal? My doc wants me to start Seroquel to find sleep . But I want to teach my body to find sleep again. Is there a possibility to heal by myself?
Yes I healed my sleep without drugs but it took many years. Remember that drugs can make you feel like you are sleeping but it’s a medicated version of that. Seek out a sleep coach or look at your sleep hygiene and current medications to correct those things first!
For Some days, I sleep 3-4 hours, but somedays I just can't sleep at all, can it be a common pattern in benzo withdrawal? I am 4 months off. When I sleep, I get horrible dreams, and I just wakeup terrified, all my nerves filled with fear, and I left with shaking . Why I am experiencing fear sensations in my sleep?
The fear in your sleep is the same thing keeping you awake those nights. Both are very common in withdrawal. It’s terrible but it does go away with more time.
Thank you for doing this but you're talking way too fast. If you could please slow it down it would be soothing to listen to you instead of aggravating. Oh, never mind, I put the speed at .5.
Hi Angie. I feel like im going through this now on holidays in japan of all places. Iv probably only done 10-15day in a row before I left up until I jumped onto plane. What do you think my recovery would be from above? I was usually doing a full brick every night. Nice to know I’m not alone. I feel soo stupid for this nd it’s ruining our snowboarding holiday
I have no idea. I’m sorry. I don’t know anything about your history or how you’re feeling or anything like that. I don’t speculate like you’re asking through social media either. That would be irresponsible of me.
I started sleep meds Ambien and now Lunesta approx 15 yrs ago working shift work at the hospital. Now I’m retired and my goal is to finally stop the meds. I’m scared to death to stop them though…
Yes. 5 months lorazapam. 1mg per day. Off 14 weeks. Taper with valium 5mg .....12 weeks was hell on fire...... sleep is a major issue. Excruciating neck spine pain. 12th week could barely walk.
@@AngiePeacockMSW I am having this funny feeling and in my left leg calf and ankle and those nerves inside I feel they are weak n dont function as well as the right . Is this nerves damage??
@@AngiePeacockMSW I didn't think so. I've tried so many and nothing has made a great significance...time & good sleep is the only thing that makes it better.
@@jeffgalaska9277 well, I don't think people should be eating crap whether in or out of withdrawal. You don't want to be working on diabetes while you are in wd either.
My input is be very careful with buddist precepts, they mostly are about self, try helping others and be kind to all, and definately worth giving up television if you can, constant bombardment about self, and desiring things you don’t actually need, even while watching this video , I think 4 ads came up about what I consider are doubtful treatments.......then try something novel, go and look at a fossil of a comb Jellie, then look at one today, they are exactly the same, as all fossils are, the same powers that sends people to war , wasting Trillions of dollars, just as they do teaching and financing University’s and academics teaching evolution , when the fossil record and evidence shows nothing has ever “ evolved”. The most certain scientific fact on earth is that life comes from life, try telling someone that your computer made itself, which evolution teaches everything made itself, it’s just absurd! Those same powers Are the ones that have allowed all these very dangerous drugs to be accepted , and allowed lies that mental illness is a “ chemical imbalance “ to proliferate.
This doc won't write before colonoscopy after remarkable Colo Guard. Twenty ear Klomi. 5th day with no sleep. I'm f*cked like a bunny. I want to be straight before I get bad news? No, thank you. Save that for the real Buddhists and philosophy majors.
yeah sure, that’s why I freaking tuned out because you wouldn’t get to the point. People with anxiety coming across your videos don’t want to sit around and hear about all the stuff they should sign up for, get to the freaking point and learn how TH-cam works
Angie, what is your email address, I been on 10 years on temezepam and ambien. Horrible insomni now, Doctor did not refill, and said see a psychiatrist and come back in a year.
October 6th… Join me to celebrate the official launch of my coaching and consulting business, APeacock Consulting, LLC.

I believe I experience the exact same thing! It has something to do with the brain's transition from sleep to waking, clearly. And that the damage to our brains is reflecting a dysfunction, still. Not fully healed yet.
But, keep going! Don't go back!

Yes absolute fear and terror
I'm also getting of Benzos after 20years. (Still on Prozac, long term goal to get off that too). This really helps..your comment and reply from a lady who says it will go away . So I know what to expect. I hope it's getting better? Thank you.
Watching this 3:00 in the morning.
13 months off benzos and my sleep is terrible.
I have to put my hands on my chest to try and calm down all the adrenaline this is bloody awful.
😢😢😢
It’s horrible but it WILL go away
I thought I was nuts until I read about the hyperexciteability. I know now but tossing and turning with dark thoughts doesn’t help😢😢😢
How you doing
Brilliant Angie, I was the same only sleeping about 20 miss to one hour a night. The meds I xame off were very strong tricyclics which were the core of my treatment for 40 years plus loads else. It did take at least 11 months but then slowly crept up. Now 2 years off, I am proud that most nights I sleep for about 6 hours with no meds at all!!!!
One thing that helped early on was not too stress about not getting it at night but to go across 24 hours and if you feel you can sleep some other time then go for it because it's mire about resting and getting what you can as you are able rather than getting anxious overnight. Over time as you begin to sleep you can slowly shift back to night time. Your body will naturally return overtime to a more usual pattern.
I also so echo that radical acceptance bit, that alone just helped so much, not to fight it but allow and accept this process is so hard and you will feel rubbish for a good long timeXx
Thank you for this . I have not listened to all of it , but I like the "radical acceptance" of "you won't sleep" . It is so true...I have had insomnia for weeks and weeks, months...years... tapering and when I was on them and not tapering. I just need to be like , yep, this is tapering, I don't sleep. Accept it instead of fighting it and wasting energy on frustration. lucky for me I do not work, so I can sleep in the next day . I have to get some sleep otherwise I get very run down and sick. I don't know how anyone can hold down a job with Benzo Insomnia, incredibly tough.
I had to stop working cause of it
Angie, you are not an old lady. Not at all. So happy you ARE a survivor. 🙏🏼 God bless you for all your insights. 💪🏽👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you Diane!
Thank you for all you've been doing for our community, Angie! Thz thing that helps me is radical acceptance. Accepting whatever may happen the next day if I do not fall asleep is what makes me sleep. The other thing is yoga nidra that works sometimes and even allowed to nap which for me is huge! Wishing you all the best ❤
I’m really struggling. I’m hitting 11 months and I got hit with a massive insomnia wave. I haven’t had this since 7 months ago. But I’m having all these intense surges and awful brain sensations. What the crap!! I’m so upset and scared and cant stop sobbing. A lot of impending doom type feeling. Just feels so alone. I’m praying it passes but I’m so scared shit is going to get worse. I’ve been in this wave 10 days but the past 2 days it has gotten 1000x worse. Im praying this gets better. Im holding on to that hope because there is no other option but to hold on. Your videos bring me so much hope.
I have all of this you are talking about. When I lay down I start the rumination, obsessive thoughts, which would amp all the fear and surges. My brain is beyond wired and I feel like I could run a marathon. 100%. This shit sucks! I listen to Jason on my bad nights!! His work is great
So common what you are experiencing. Please hang on. It can go as fast as it came!
K I am right there with you depending on what your going off of everyone seems to experience varying degrees of different symptoms. I want you to know your not alone. I have been dealing with the same for 3 weeks. Angie really helped me realize we are all not going mad and these drugs really mess with our brain chemistry. Just keep pushing thru. Surround yourself with positive energy and people. I mostly emphasize lots of self care like I mean tons!! Lol best wishes!
@@AngiePeacockMSWThank you.❤
Great video Angie, a lot of what you talk about are things that I have tried along the way, some helped and other things didn’t work for me. I think the most important thing for me was that if you could not sleep was rest. Rest was still better then being up and around. I would lay in my recliner with my blanket in the dark and just breathe. All we can do is the best we can when we are on this journey.
At 7 years off this month I have been getting more sleep then ever. The weather is also changing here in northern Ohio and I suppose that retiring the first of August has helped too.
Thanks for all you do!
Excellent to hear! Yes, sometimes certain things will work for a period of time and then they stop working all together. Even just laying there and breathing IS doing something even if it doesn’t feel like it. You could call that mindfulness or present moment awareness even. Or radical accepting the situation and that being all you could do.
Sleep has been a life long challenge for me.
Me too but now that I’m off everything, I’m sleeping the best I ever have!
This made me vividly remember what I’d blissfully forgotten- insomnia after opiate cold turkey.
I used ASMR, I listened to University Courses in Roman and Greek mythology & stuff like that,
Body scans, yoga Nidra,
I counted backwards from 300 and visualized each number, you can add color, shape, movement… all to distract.
I listened to police radio scanner.
And now I have a long list of people I listen to to fall asleep listening to…
Thanks for making the video. I will look at these. Hopefully soon my sleep will return so I can continue my taper. One thing that works when the insomnia is less severe is melatonin. I can tell that the insomnia is lifting when melatonin makes me sleepy again.
How are you now with sleep ? I'm off lexapro and not sleeping at all.
Your videos are amazing
Thank you 🙏
Insomnia , Zero motivation and Anhedonia. Could you please help me with those?
I'm bedbound, can barely do anything everyday, I just stay in bed or on the couch. This Zero motivation is killing me, Please tell me it gets better, I can't stand it, it's freaking holocaust, hell.
I use the Calm app, cost me about 50 bucks a year, but the sleep stories are great,
Great tip! Thanks for sharing.
What diet change did you make on month 11 that helped you? Thank you for this treasure trove of information, Angie. CBTi made things much work and then the therapist blamed us for not doing it right, urgh. What helped: "boring" science podcasts and aiming for RESTING, even if no sleep. I love that you talk about loving sleep again, I can't wait for that feeling.
I did paleo but added a little rice and sweet potato. No fluids except filtered water.
Thanks for making this video. I can relate and agree with a lot of what you've said. I'm 16 months off antidepressants after taking them for 12 years. My sleep isn't too bad, but I have other issues. Videos like this make me feel less alone. I know I'm not alone, but sometimes it feels like I am. Thanks again.
What helps me sleep is my night time routine where I wash my face, put on face cream, brush my teeth, etc. I keep my room dark and cool. I use white noise to cancel other annoying noises like my cats cleaning themselves which sometimes seems to activate my fight or flight response. Meditating helps me relax and calm down as well. It's weird because I feel like I've only been able to successfully meditate off the meds. Baths with Epsom salt seem to help me as well. Definitely a lot of good suggestions in the video.
I’m so glad you feel less alone and also that you were able to find a few good things that work for you. Those things will create new neural pathways and will be really good habits you have rewired when all of this is over. So great!
This might help somebody (SUPLIMENTS).
First of all you need to get over that sleep anxiety and to be able to fall asleep even if it’s for half an hour.
As supliments I use
1. Taurine 6g- try less (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOR ME)
2. 1000 mg magnesium (bisglycenate)
3. CBD OIL one teaspoon
I take these right before sleep (not before I want to fall asleep but before the hour I usualy fall asleep). I heard that CBN oil is better so experiment if you can.
REMEMBER YOU WILL HEAL. God bless you:)
Some of the things you’ve named make people worse. I’m glad they helped you. But we should not be so directive in our advice to others!
Something that has helped me is taking the amino acids taurine, L-theanine and glycine. Even some forms of magnesium are good too, mainly magnesium glycinate and malate respectively. Then another incredibly good thing to have friends to talk to, as well as healthcare professionals who support you can help you through withdrawal from both benzodiazepines and alcohol. The mentioned amino acids plus magnesium also have some protective effect against withdrawal-induced grand mal seizures, which are a risk if one has taken benzodiazepines or drunk alcohol in high doses for a long time.
I’ve seen many who react severely to magnesium. I’d say 80% can take it, 20% react negatively.
A very cold shower in the middle of the night relaxes me much when i cant sleep.
Great tip!
Does anyone have hypnic hallucinations? Like hallucinations between the dream and wake state-not a dream but not fully awake either? Sometimes see shapes, but sometimes see scary figures. It’s scary as hell.
Yes I had this symptom really bad. I would even see little gears and machines and stick figures. So strange.
Thank you so much for making this video, you probably saved me so much and time and effort, I was so unaware of what's happening to me but it all makes sense now OMG
Go back and watch my first few videos too.
Oh my gosh Angie thank you so much. I was only on benzos for 2 months and used sparingly and was going off Effexor. Been on many antidepressants for 21 yrs and the insomnia started. So good to know that I can survive this. Tears are streaming down knowing that what is happening is not just me. How can I get coaching from you?
I knowI am late in replying, but putting this here for others in case they see the comment, www.angiepeacock.com
Your videos are so helpful. Thank you for taking the time to help others
Thank you for a wonderful video. I have has chronic insomnia for 3 years. I was originally prescribed Klonopin 0.5mg at bed for sleep and chronic anxiety. First year was good, but then went down hill when I didn't want to increase the medication. I started to develop insomnia then. I did a taper of 6 months and have been off since February. I still have not gotten my sleep back. I can either fall asleep but wake up in the middle of night, or can't get back to sleep. Sleep Hygiene has not helped. My doctors don't think its from the klonopin but i never had insomnia before I took klonopin. My new doctor wants me to try Buspar for Genaralized Anxiety.
Thanks so much be well
Soft White Underbelly channel can be good for stories of real people, real people talking. That helps me get through the day, not music, but human voices talking, no script, just regular down to earth honest people ❤
Great video. Thanks for the help
I'm asleep very early now before 9pm. At the moment I wake up way too early in the morning and I'm super wired like I've drunk a double expresso. I will try listening to some of those things thanks.
Those cortisol surges, or whatever they are, are killer! But they will calm down as time goes by.
@@AngiePeacockMSW the August flare up I had was really strange, I really was losing my marbles walking around. When I went to lie down I'd be in some kind of trance where I thought I was on a roller coaster. I'd rather avoid a repeat episode of that. I think it is probably cortisol rushes are waking me up early, a good thing to dampen down that effect is to drink tart cherry juice which boosts melatonin. I have accumulated a stock of all sorts of weird stuff in my kitchen cupboards.
Phone addiction is a difficult one for me. Thanks for the list of tips Angie.❤
It’s real!
Thank you so much for this 😭
I am on 3 months withdrawal so far. I was taking olanzapine. I did not have much symptoms just dry mouth. I have sleeping disturbances. I sleep 4h per day sometimes 6h so it is not as bad but still I feel tired once I wake up.
how were the first 2 months off and sleep there if i may ask?
@@lollolliii 7h
Its the hives like blisters and the feeling of burning up then freezing its terbil xx anyone els get this xx
Yes burning and freezing at same time
I'm going through Klonopin withdrawal right now ... On day 8 of only dozing off for 20 minutes or so a night... This is torture! ... Thank you for this video! It's 4am right now where I am and this video calmed me down a lot! I was having that panicky, chest caving in and on fire feeling and listening to you helped me through that ... I've been drinking 2 beers a night right before bed trying to use the to help me doze off which it does help to doze off but I think I feel worse when it goes out my system... Did you ever try a shot at night or a few beers while you were going through it?
Don’t do that!! It can make it worse. Alcohol acts on the same receptors as benzos so you’re basically taking a liquid benzo. Better to just cope with the sleep problems and they will heal on their own.
@@AngiePeacockMSW yeah after looking into it more I see that now! .... This is so F'd up!! There's just no relief
@@charliebates9098 There is, just go slower(more slowly). If you are on short acting Benzo, why not switch to longer acting one? (Valium). Also dietary changes (antiinflamatory diet) is important, probiotics,prebiotics. You do know that gut is "second brain" and most of neurotransmitters are made in gut not brain. Moving (if you can't go out, in your room) Breathing exercise (vagus nerve stimulation) Research everything you can about Gaba restoration, neuroprotective foods/supplements, neuroplasticity. Try each thing apart from other so you can tell what effects you. CBD if you are not on other meds. Hope it gets better, let us know how it's going, take care. 🙋
@@naomimara3340 thanks for the reply but I'm over it now... Took a long time but everything has gone back to normal for the most part... I still have this cramping tightening thing going on in my stomach sometimes that I have no clue where it came from but everything else is fine
@@charliebates9098 Oh, than I'm glad to hear that! 😊 Spread the word, there are succes stories too.👍
Ps.You started tappering 2 months ago, right? And you're already done. Then you weren't on a high dose (or hadn't been taking it too long, like many years?
I haven’t slept for 8 days
I wanted to ask if it's normal to have hypersensitivity to every sound while you are trying to sleep ? I have insomnia after withdrawal and now I wake up with the tiniest sound! Is this permanent Angie?
Yes I had that too. I was never a light sleeper before but every sound would keep me up and I could hear things happening outside that I was never aware of before. No it’s not permanent. It’s part of withdrawal if you didn’t have that before coming off.
Huberman is a legend man I'm on 17mg of valium uk and I'm struggling with sleep and I do use red shifts light. Alan watts is my go too. Wow man u love Buddhism, ❤️

Joe Dispenza really helps me in benzo wd, but I can see how it'd be intense for someone. He has some calm ones. The first BOTEC for example.
Horrible insomnia off of zyprexa. Feels like I’m dying
You’re not dying but it sure feels like it
@@AngiePeacockMSW I want to endure the withdrawal process but it’s so bad without sleep that sometimes I want to start taking it again. Hated the stuff too
@@AngiePeacockMSW thanks for making me feel heard
@@meechi8265 hey..did you get your sleep back?
Thanks for the video
I mentioned how my brain and CNS just wouldn’t let me down that bottom rung into sleep

it will heal as you taper down.
@@AngiePeacockMSW
Mirtazapine is as bad as Klonopin
Not even sure what to taper
I’m on 7.5 mirt and .75 k
Should I switch to another benzo or go to a detox or treatment?

@@AngiePeacockMSW a long time ago mabey 4 years ago you did a video talking about intrusive thoughts .. Steven King satan type thoughts that lasted for about 18month.. You were right.. Mine lasted around 18 to 20months.. Your videos really helped me out seriously.. Blessings and thank you❤
Angie- I’ve followed you for a long time. Thanks for all you contribute to this community. You’ve been a beacon of light for so many of us. ❤
Angie it is so nice seeing you live your best life. You’re amazing.
I can usually get to sleep, just can’t stay asleep. It’s the waking up that is a huge problem for me. I can sometimes get back to sleep. The Breethe app is one I use to try to get back to sleep. However when 7 am hits I’m a mess. I can barely function through the day. Can’t sit or settle. I’m having a hard time with acceptance I think. I’m going to check out your recommendation and try to listen to Radical Acceptance? Was that it.
My fears greatly revolve around eating and my stomach issues. They are crippling me. I would love to hear if you had these and what you did. If you have done something on this already could you please point me in that direction. If not please could you address this in an upcoming video. Thanks again so much for doing this. 💜
@@mjmcclellan7723 Thank you so much for saying that
I am 13 months off 0.25 lorazapam and 11 months of of 1.25 mg of ambien. The lorazapam was short usage and ambien was for 15 years. I am now steeping pretty good. Just this week I started waking up at 3 with a huge surge. What the heck? Why is this happening now. .
Sometimes there’s no rhyme or reason but just hang in there. I’m sure it’ll go away soon!
@chargrady9928 how are you doing?
Hey Angie. 🖤
I lost the ability to feel tired and sleepy after taking benzos. I tapered them but still wasn't able to sleep. Went 3 days no sleep so psychiatrist put me on Quetiapine / Seroquel for sleep. Which I'm currently still on.
Still never feel sleepy or tired at night.
Do you think it's possible for sleep to return if I taper off of this?
I've been dealing with a small xanax addiction that has being on and off for the last maybe 3 months. I know I can shake it and get back to normal if I just persevere, but my multiple sleepless nights in a row and literally debilitating anxiety is what brought me here today. I just purchased Gaba, Saffron, Ashwaghanda, and Moringa supplements in a panic to try to correct what is happening with my body/brain. What is your take on these supplements?
These Supplements do nothing. Maybe a multivitamin and Vit. D.
Stay away from benzo's, it is brain poison in the long run.
Just about to start my second withdrawal after extreme usage daily for 3 months. I was clean 6 years and started again after some lifecrisis happened.
I'm absolutely horrified that I will go through another episode like back in 2018. It was 6 months of pure hell, psychosis, panic attacks etc I couldn't handle another one.
But then I had been doing them daily for 5 years, this time only 3 months so I hope I will not get it as bad. But I'm dreading it. I feel it every morning now the sweats, flu symptoms, panic attacks, anxiety etc
I don't know when I will do the jump.
Problem is I self medicate and have to leave urine tests now etc for work so om utterly fucked. They don't give out benzos in my country easily, not even when I told them last time I did them daily for 5 years and I was almost dying from withdrawal.
Wish me luck
You should probably taper more slowly. Doing something rapid could cause this to be pretty bad.
@@AngiePeacockMSW Thanks for the answer. That would be optimal, but they very rarely give you benzos in my country, even for acute withdrawal. You get Atarax (Hydroxizin) or Theralen (Alimemazin) which I dread both. The do nothing but give me bad creeps in the legs and absolutely zero against the withdrawal.
My blggest wish would be to get a long taper on diazepam, from a doctor. But that would never happen here sadly.
Omg 11 months of 20 minutes to an hour of sleep 😮!!!? There's no way I can do that I drive a very very heavy/big truck for a living if my mind isn't right I could make a mistake and kill someone.... How the hell am I supposed to not sleep for 11 months.... Gah
You had periods of zero sleep? I keep watching this video to help me push through. Dr wants me back on lexapo I tapper 20mg to 10mg fast then slow from 10mg to 0.4mg, then I jumped off a little over 2 weeks ago. Anxiety, insomnia, 4 nights 0 sleep. Makes me feel more fearful. I want to get through this without having to go back on. May need you guidance.
30 min - 1 hour the first year. I slept 4 hours broken at 11 month mark, year 2 was like 1-4 hours, all over the place. Next year was 3-5 broken. Now I sleep 7-8 and it's restful and I sleep like a baby. I wake up once to pee but I think that's perimenopause.
How long were you on lexapro?
@@ellaMel4632 About.
Two and a half years but I was on it prior a year before I started Taking it this pastime. I have also been on other meds years before that.
So Angie , you did not take one supplement or herb then through the process ? How did you keep from going delirious ? Its HORRIBLE ! 1200 o’clock , 1 2 , 3 , 4, 5 o clock not sleeping
nope, I took nothing until 4 years off and that was only Vitamin C, D, Zinc, Magnesium, Potassium, B12 and all occasionally. None every single day.
I suffer from bad insomnia and this makes me so aggressive. Is this normal? My doc wants me to start Seroquel to find sleep . But I want to teach my body to find sleep again. Is there a possibility to heal by myself?
Yes I healed my sleep without drugs but it took many years. Remember that drugs can make you feel like you are sleeping but it’s a medicated version of that. Seek out a sleep coach or look at your sleep hygiene and current medications to correct those things first!
Angie, does supplements help. Magnolia bark I was told helps with withdrawal.
www.benzoinfo.com/medications-and-supplements/
For Some days, I sleep 3-4 hours, but somedays I just can't sleep at all, can it be a common pattern in benzo withdrawal? I am 4 months off.
When I sleep, I get horrible dreams, and I just wakeup terrified, all my nerves filled with fear, and I left with shaking . Why I am experiencing fear sensations in my sleep?
The fear in your sleep is the same thing keeping you awake those nights. Both are very common in withdrawal. It’s terrible but it does go away with more time.
@@AngiePeacockMSW thanks, I hope it goes soon.🙏
Me too😢😢😢
I feel so depressed and suicidal sometimes

My input is be very careful with buddist precepts, they mostly are about self, try helping others and be kind to all, and definately worth giving up television if you can, constant bombardment about self, and desiring things you don’t actually need, even while watching this video , I think 4 ads came up about what I consider are doubtful treatments.......then try something novel, go and look at a fossil of a comb Jellie, then look at one today, they are exactly the same, as all fossils are, the same powers that sends people to war , wasting Trillions of dollars, just as they do teaching and financing University’s and academics teaching evolution , when the fossil record and evidence shows nothing has ever “ evolved”. The most certain scientific fact on earth is that life comes from life, try telling someone that your computer made itself, which evolution teaches everything made itself, it’s just absurd! Those same powers
Are the ones that have allowed all these very dangerous drugs to be accepted , and allowed lies that mental illness is a “ chemical imbalance “ to proliferate.
