I was on 1mg 4x a day for about 8 years and had a similar experience when I came off them. Was paranoid, reclusive, had the skin sensations of heat/ burning. Severe pains in my root canal tooth. Sever pain in my hands and wrists like I was 100 years old with arthritis. I literally had trouble cutting produce to cook with. Any issues I had were magnified. And the first 3 months by far was the hardest. Next 3 months got better each month to quite a bit better and then a slow healing process to the about 1 year mark. I went on an alkaline vegan diet and cut out gluten, sugar, and soy for anti inflammation and it made a huge difference. My mind was the slowest to get back but after like 18 months I was better than I ever was on klonopins. Less anxious more clear headed and way healthier over all. It’s a pain at first literally but so worth it and empowering knowing you dont need anything. Guided meditations helped a lot for my initial come off and cardio exercise is great.

It doesn’t cause that for me honestly it takes my pain away and helps me to function!

Did you do that in the hospital?
