Thank you for your reply. I too want to go forward and not backward. Who wants to go down that road again! I thought of trying CBD oil for the anxiety but want to research it some more. I have been biking daily, when it's not snowing and blowing, and walking the dog a couple of times a day. Started meditating using an app called Head Space and trying to go to yoga at least twice a week. Acupuncture has been my "saving grace". It relaxes and quiets the mind and body. I hope it helps with your insomnia it helped with mine. I go once a week for now. Also get a vitamin B12 shot weekly. Gave up gluten, dairy . sugar, alcohol, caffeine. Really miss coffee but it's a little too stimulating for now. Have been eating more protein, healthy fats, veggies and low carbohydrates. Seems to help. I think my body needs time to adjust to no pharmaceuticals. Can't believe what havoc these drugs cause to your system.
Good luck to you. WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!

You sound like you’re on the right track for sure! I went to my first acupuncture session today & oh yes... It calmed me down for sure! Love it so much and will continue. The acupuncturist said I had a week heart and that is causing my depression. He told me to stop running and instead walk. My homeopathic Dr told me to stop running also because she though I was stressing my adrenal glands. I will walk and do yoga from now on. I’m also looking into craniosacral massage. Have you looked into that? My husband has had a session & it helped his sciatica. It also helps depression, anxiety and insomnia. Very cool look it up. Eastern medicine is the way to go!!! I’ve been feeling really good last 2 days! I stopped taking my meds last month on the 5th so I hope I’m through the worst part. Keep going!!! Hang on!!! Good stuff coming!!!
