Please help with restlessness,pacing constanly

Hi there

I am currently withdrawing from an Diazepam and seem to be getting restlessness where I wake in the morning and pace all day until I go to bed.

This is driving me mad.

Can you please help me?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Homoeopathic prescriptions require more detail about the problem to be made with confidence.

Please flesh out the problem - what makes it worse, what makes it better, when it occurs, exactly what it feels like, when it started, what symptoms or problems occur with it and so on.

You want to write a story, help us to understand precisely what it feels like to be you, in this situation, with this problem.

Ok I will try my best to explain, Nothing makes it worse because it is there all day, until i sleep, walking constantly is the only thing I can do, nothing makes it better, it feels like my inner body needs to keep moving, i feel agitated, anxious. It started when I finsihed my anti depressant Mirtazepine.

I also feel tonight very suicidal and depressed, I feel no hope into ever getting better, I am desparate to get better, I don't really want to die but I don't want to feel like this anymore :(

Thanks

Do you have access to counselling? While I applaud your search for a more natural way to deal with the problem, an internet forum doesn't replace having someone to talk with.

Homoeopathy can be a very suitable complement to counselling - but I urge you to find someone to support you face-to-face if you can, a relative or friend perhaps.

Are you under someone's care for this withdrawal process? Withdrawal from pyschiatric medication is difficult and can result in different kinds of crises occurring. Someone must be on hand to deal with them. If not done properly, you may end up back on medication or on even more medication, which will undermine the whole thing for you.

In terms of choosing a medicine - the symptoms you have given are very general and do not point to a specific remedy. I have often found Avena sativa to be useful to help people going through any kind of drug withdrawal, but without good symptoms this would be somewhat of a guess.

Avena seems to work well, when it works at all, at the 30th potency.
