Question by DANIELLE R: Taking neurtonin but started to abuse it. Now trying to take myself off,having TERRIBLE anxiety etc…?
Does anyone know if this is normal? While i was suppose to take 3 600mgs a day i eventually got up to taking 8 or 9 600 mgs a day. Was put on it for bipolar but i am also a recovering addict. Someone told me to break them up and take more etc…and i’d get a high, well i did.
THen i decided i wanted to stop, i am SICK AND TIRED of having my life run by a PILL!!! I tried to just stop and had serious side effects including awful overwhelming anxiety like never before! I am extremly ratteled and feel like i wish i could crawl out of my skin, first is this due to the sudden drop in my mgs (im tryin to take my self off so toke 5 yesterday and today 4 etc…)Secondly,i am considering going to my doctor tomorrow and telling her the truth. While im nervous about this i feel like i need help to get off this properly. I am not the same person right now! Also, due to my excess use i dont have enough to even take myself off anyways and i dont want to make up some lie just to get more. I want to get away from this stuff and get myself and my recovery on track again! I literally feel like im going crazy (due to the drug effects) Im afraid of the consequences of me telling her i absued them but i am hoping instead of judging me and punishing me,she’ll help me and appreciate my honesty. Do you guys think this is the right thing to do? I would appreciate any help or info right now, thanks!

Yes definitely tell her. She needs to medically help you withdraw. You may cause more damage to yourself if you don’t do it the right way. You may want to consider going to your hospital and admit yourself in to detox asap.
