I still have days when I feel I will never again feel joy, yet some days I do feel sparks of joy, but on bad days it still feels like it will never get better. It's so day by day. I can't wait for the good days to outweigh the bad.

We need more videos like this! Success stories, positive outcomes, hope when we are feeling wrecked ad damaged, alone and desperate!

[@AngiePeacockMSW]

My whole channel is practically this! Check some of the older videos to see these full interviews and success stories.

Ending it with the woman who said she’s never seen someone not heal was perfect thank you❤

[@celestepiccolo6586]

I was never broken! This is my current new identity. I have identified myself as someone with mental illness for the past 15 years. The drugs actually caused my “mental illness.” I was initially given a gabapentinoid for nerve pain at age 16. I was never broken!

[@Waves353]

Yes!! You are not broken!

[@jessicastephens9714]

Yes I love this. Thank you. We will heal. I didn't think I would. I was told I wouldn't. People in the support groups can be such negative fear mongers. I was told I wouldn't heal if I didn't believe I would heal. I was told I wouldn't heal until I was off all psych drugs. I was told I wouldn't heal for all sorts of reasons. Guess what? They were all dead wrong. I have come so far and now I know I will recover fully. I'm almost there. I really didn't think I was going to make it for a long time but I did. We will all make it. Our bodies want to get better and they know exactly what to do in order to achieve healing. Hang in there, everyone!

[@jessicawindsor280]

@@brokenwingedsongbird I am here to tell you that is a lie straight from hell from the Father of Lies. God's ways are so much higher than ours.. He doesn't always answer the way we want. Paul asked 3 times for God to take away his torment, but God said His strength is made perfect in our weakness. He also said in this world we will have many troubles but TAKE HEART I have overcome it and that He would never leave or forsake us..But no matter what it looks like, lean not on your own understand but TRUST Him to bring glory from ashes..that's why it's called the good FIGHT of FAITH.This life is a breath and will be over before you know it but He still has you here for a reason..don't give up..He is for you girl,don't let the enemy tell you otherwise.

@@brokenwingedsongbird That is a lie straight from the father of lies. Jesus said in the world we will have many troubles but take heart for I have overcome them! Paul also pleaded with the Lord 3 times to take away a tormentor of his flesh but God said " My strength is made perfect in weakness". Yes this world is rough..Jesus knows that, the very people who He came to save KILLED Him,even though He already knew they would. What I'm saying is,there is a reason it's called "The good fight of faith" it's tough girl. But He promised to Never leave or forsake us, and to not lean on our own understanding, but to TRUST Him. This life is so fleeting and will be over before you know it, but Thank God we have a hope in Jesus. if you TRULY knew Him, you would know what I'm saying. Get to know HIM not the religious crap,but Jesus. Don't harden your heart towards Him He still has you here for a reason,but it's your choice on whether you are going to trust Him or the lies of the enemy.

Thanks for posting this. It’s hard to believe that when you still get worse after a while off of everything 😢 I tend to think something is broken permanently more than in other cases and that’s why it’s a downward spiral.

Thank you. Very sweet to make that video ! I am crawling. I feel completely overwhelmed and often think I cannot do this. How did I end up in this hell that tapering is. U are in the most awful state, and u have to fiddle around with doing math, handling tiny bits of tablet, and scales and razor blades. There is no liquid Val in my country even if I was brave enough to switch. I ma now completely terrorised my any pharma drug or supplement and now even food is making me feel ill. G*d help us all.

[@courtneyjohnson315]

Did you end up making content somewhere or special group coaching session on your views of nutrition as it relates to taper/withdrawal/mental health? I said yes to your ig poll but think I might have missed it? Super interested to hear your take as I’m dealing with gut issues now at 2.5 months off

[@julieadams5389]

My husband watched this. He remarked - only one man and all other speakers were woman. He wondered how is it that women are more affected by withdrawal than men. Now I know there are many men going through withdrawal but would like to know the ratio of men to women in the benzo community. Just asking as to be able to answer his question, really. If anyone actually knows the answer to this. Thank you.

[@AngiePeacockMSW]

More women are medicated in the first place than men. I think it’s 1 in 4 women where it’s 1 in 6 men. I would also say men are more likely to be prescribed antidepressants and women more Benzos but I can’t prove that. It’s just what I’ve noticed. Also, I work with men but way more women probably 10x more women than men who I coach.

@@AngiePeacockMSW Pretty much everything. They take turns in like groups. Burning, boob aches, wonky cotton brain, anxiety, surges of anxiety then hot flashes, burning tongue. A set will calm then another set will come in. I was doing much better last fall but after the first of the year had a lot of loss. Not sure if that caused it? My setbacks tend to be from those kinds of situations. Can’t do anything about that. Just gets more lonely when you get so far out. I go to my dr and get regular checkups. I will have parts of the day where I’m really good. I just say to my brain…COME ON ALREADY!! lol.

If it were this simple. So heartbreaking because i wouldbhave healed and i know im never going to now. Beyond too severe and no im not just saying that. Wish id taken a benzo instead so id be one who healed

[@AngiePeacockMSW]

People in the video have taken all kinds of drugs. So have I. What drug is it that you think you won’t heal from?

[@brokenwingedsongbird]

@AngiePeacockMSW it's not about who took what drug. It's about level of injury (not simply wd) and loss and trauma during the ordeal. It's just not as simple as once the wd ends you are good

[@brokenwingedsongbird]

​@AngiePeacockMSW what I meant by that is that there is tons of info on benzo and very little on ads unless you know exactly where to look. Also my dr knew about benzo danger when my first level of wd would have healed from zoloft. Bc he said "if this was a benzo you were taking I'd say yes this is from that" and instead I got gaslighted and tortured in a way that's too inhumane to describe. I'd have healed had I known about s.a. or inner compass. If I had been on a benzo even that dumb dr would have been the one to save me. So that's why I say I wish I'd been on a benzo
