I’m not advocating for them since it’s creating its own set of huge problems but as someone who is very severe how am I supposed to not get addicted even with minimal use. I’m actively suffering so much and it’s I’m the only thing that takes me out of this hell hole even if it’s only for 3/4 hours.
-it quells my trembling /shaking + anxiety
- it reduces my poisoned malaise to a manageable level
-it reduces sensitivity so I can tolerate human contact and get to see my family for a little
- it allows me to speak a little (functionally mute)
-it lets me use the phone
-it makes sounds and mid level lights not seem unbearable
-it gives me hunger/ appetite and allows me to eat liquid meal
-it allows me to move a little more and walk from mostly bedridden
-it takes away my nausea
-it takes away my temperature dysregulation
-lessens my migraines
-allows me to listen and process audio
-it helps normalize bowel movements
Like how the fuck is it doing all of that for me. How am I not supposed to become an addict when it does all of this for me . How is this not researched more.
I need to stop taking them because I’m becoming so dependent and just wanted to vent. Any advice would be appreciated.
