There are many ways to detox. All that you described people have done and have worked. Have you considered speaking with a professional in your area to find out what is available and which plan suits you best? Might be the easiest thing. Because everything will cause more confusion at this point. You want to pick the one that will help you stop and have the best chance for staying off the meds. Getting off the meds is easy. Staying off the meds is hard. Whatever you chose best of luck. You've taken the first step. I wish you the best.

if you go the cold turkey route ya just gotta know it's awful and stick with it. It gets so uncomfortable you wanna just die but that part passes after awhile and then there is the mental component which may affect you. If you do the cold turkey way focus on how to support your body in all the best ways you can. It's all possible. I don't know much about the meds so just keep listening to the posts. Just gotta see which way is best for you. Good luck! Keep writing and let us know how you are doing.
