Zopiclone Addiction (little One)
Posted: 06-18-06 20:42pm

Hi,

my nick is dpdrgil, I am 31, and I use zopiclone since 3 years each day because of post-partum depression, trauma and anxiety problems that lends me to depersonalization and derealization problems full time. My psychiatrist and I tried many meds, and the only one that touched the depersonalization and derealization symptoms (at least, helped me to tought this anxiety symptom) is zopiclone. At first I took if for the night only. After I began to take it in the day, like a quarter, or a half, to help be go thghout the pain of dp/dr, and to be able not to stress too much. It really really help, it even help for depression. I doesn't make me sleep anymore, just relax a little and I forget my illness *symptoms.

But now, I take easily 2 pills of 7,5 mg a day, and I would like to stop to have another baby. I tried to stop many times, but I do come into depression, I have insomnia, I a terrible mood swings, I shake, I don't know what to do. I tried other ssri to help me, it doesn't help. People told me to take benadryl but I am allergic to it. I even tried gravol, but it gives me palpitations.

Really, I don't know what to do. I really want this child but I don't want to be fed up all the 9 months, and I would like so much to be dp/dr free and happy w/o this med.

If you have great ideas, let me know : dpdrgir l@hotmail.Com

thanks!

Hello benzogirl, as you can understand that you have been addicted to this medicine; you need to quit this as soon as you can. Moreover it’s the matter of your baby right? These types of medicines, especially at this stage are very dangerous to your, as well as your baby’s health. Instead of trying out other drugs like benadryl or gravol, I would suggest you to go for some AA meetings or some rehabilitation programs. Taking of too much drugs at this stage is not good at all, so it’s better you go for the rehab programs. I’m sure this will help you.
