Holy cow good news - accepted into mdma study

[Angelwings]

I am getting into the MDMA PTSD study this summer! They just emailed me about an hour ago. They're in their third trial and in the second trial 60% of those receiving the MDMA (not in the control group) no longer scored high enough to be diagnosed with PTSD! Wow, my day has turned around!

That is Awesome!!!

@Searching4Self I'm totally excited! I hope I'm not in the control group.

Only issue is that I have to get off of ALL my medications, but not until summer.

I just had my student loans written off because of a "total and permanent disability" maybe not permanent anymore.

If you’re coming off meds, you may have to start weaning off now. Some take months to get off of.

 

[Angelwings]

True and my psychiatrist is the one who wanted me in this study, so she's going to help with that process.

And the meds I'm on I've only been taking for a couple of weeks.

except for klonopin, I've been on that for 9 years and we were already going to start weaning me off of that next week.

Uhm.....that may be one hell of a withdrawal. Benzo withdrawals should only be done at a 10% taper. And even so, if you’re dependent, which at 9 years, is quite likely, it may take quite awhile to come off them. I’d start the taper now.

Great news Angelwings!

@EveHarrington that is what my psychiatrist told me. VERY slow taper. She still believes I'll have enough time.

Great news

 

[shatter eyes]

Yea... i came off the ClonZ too quick and was having seizures. Benzo just as dangerous as opioid withdrawal.

Keep us posted on your journey.
