I'm 38 years old and live in Bideford in North Devon,., in the southwest of South West England. I suffer from Schizophrenia, anxiety, insomnia and depression. I am taking Diazepam and am tapering off it and used to be prescribed (and dependent on) Oxycontin (Hill Billy Heroin) and now I transferred that addiction for 80ml of Methadone each day. I was prescribed 30mg Diazepam (Valium), Pregabalin (Lyrica) 800mg, 7.5mg zopiclone and was FORCED off these in two days in hospital - even though [at the time] I had been physically dependent on benzodiazepine tranquilisers and z drugs for 16 years and dependent on the Pregabalin for about 3 years, which made zero impact on the decision the rather rash, over the top ‘“Psychiatrist" “made which has more than taken it's toll on my mental health.I have now stopped Methad0ne find turkey & it’s impossible to sleep now - I have had ~14 hours sleep in roughly 34 days now!
