I think the guy who runs The Road Back used to work with the people at Point of Retirn. Jim Harper. In fact, I just checked an old email and he said he worked with them back in 2005 and was the one who introduced them to glutathione.

Something to keep in mind about glutathione is that it can often make you feel worse before you feel better. The body is always detoxing anyway, but when you stimulate glutathione activity, it often increases symptoms of feeling unwell. There is an accelerated "cleansing" going on, for lack of a better term. I would stick with it a little longer and see if you start to feel better after your body gets used to it. It might be worth contacting the Road Back people if you haven't yet, and just for the heck of it, give a call to the Point of Return people as well. The more info the better. You might need to take less or even more of something. They would know best.
Good luck :)

Me again. Are the symptoms you are having now the result of the cold turkey withdrawal from Ativan do you think? Also, I wanted to reiterate that a glutathione enhancer/booster is probably the most important thing you can do for yourself, whether it be through Point of Return that I mentioned in my last mesage, or from another company. BIG time important. Could be the missing link you need.

Nattyann,

Sorry things are so rough on you right now. What I do is take the products from Point of Return. www.pointofreturn.com. I now only take the Glutathione Enhancer (Support). I still take fish oil, but not their brand. Too expensive and I noticed no difference with mine. I also take a probiotic (acidophilous), Coenzyme Q10, Vitamin D, Multi-Vitamin, Magnesium, Fish oil, as I mentioned, and Glucosamine Chondroitin. I would call the company and speak with someone there. They have a ton of experience with withdrawal and the necessary products to take and what to avoid. Good luck. It is no fun. I am with you on that and I hope you are able to get through this with as little difficulty as possible. I have a long way to go to get off my benzos, but I am making progress. These folks should be able to really help you, whether it be their products, or just someone to get more feedback from.

My best!
Tom

I am withdrawing from lexapro and have myoclonic jerks especially when attempting to fall asleep. It is extremely frustrating. I am seeing a holistic m.d now and doing acupuncture. Still looking for answers. Thanks
