I Need to do this at home.Broke, no car. I have been on 20mg daily for almost 2mo. How do I get off the low dose? I have to be okay for my children. I can't count on my husband. Does anyone know about using vitamins or Noni juice to lessen the pain of withdrawal? Is there anything that will really help with the awful bone pain and insomnia? Tried ambien, soma, benadryl,elavil, Nothing helps. I cannot afford rapid detox and have no one to help with my children.I am so scared.I HAVE to do this and any advice to lessen the unbearable pain of withdrawal will also help.Please hurry,I am starting 15mg tomorrow, need to know what to expect the lower I go and what I should do?I would be grateful for any legitimate advice.thanks!

I understand this from personal experience. The hard fact is for you to stop the daily meds, you really have to stop. You'll puke, have seizures, total loss of control of bowels and urine. BUT, in 7 - 14 days, if you are still alive, you won't ever need it again !
If you must stop, and it appears you do, speak straight to a doctor and request Valium or ativan to help your mental state from a panic-driven fear. Now you are AFRAID. You are right to be. But, you are living in hell now and your kids are suffering for your selfish ways.
Grow up and take responsibility. I stopped cold turkey, and I have 3 children too. I saw my weakness for what it was. There are no magic bullets or vitamins that will help. Stop looking for substances to fix a mental addiction.
If you give a damn about your family, and children you brought into this world, you must look in the mirror. It just isn't that hard compared to the damage you spread to others.
Watch the first 10 minutes of the movie "Trainspotting". You'll get a run down on what you need to quit. You will need 2 weeks though and you won't like it.

OH MY, good luck and may God Bless You. My best advice is to pray. I will say a prayer for you to.
