thanks stillcrazy - I'll look into them.
I've been spending a lot of time on the Benzobuddies site, and it's really helping me make sense of a lot of what I'm experiencing. For example for the past 4 weeks, I've been dealing with severe dry mouth. I thought it was just that the air in my apartment was drier than normal, since it's winter. Turns out it's a fairly common side effect of withdrawal. Also people have been reporting extreme nausea and worse gastric reflux, both of which I'm also experiencing.
It helps to see what other symptoms people are having as it makes me feel better, knowing what's going on.
