I am very familiar with the tremors.
When this happens are you tempted to use a benzodiazepine or did you completely stop?
I am convinced that the tremors are a result of withdrawal from any of the drugs. The only guidance you get is to taper slower and move to a longer acting Benzo like Valium to do the taper.
It completely sucks and you feel trapped. The tremors improved for me by switching from Klonopin to Valium. But , when I stopped the Valium for three days, I started feeling overwhelmed with lack of focus and hearing every kind of noise no matter how far away. And , when you take it, the next day you feel more intense depression.
Now I am having gut issues where I do not feel I am processing food correctly and different bathroom cycle. Now, getting muscular pain . All these are symptoms of withdrawal or protracted withdrawal.
Are you able to sleep a bit at night?
