Ropinorole ween down update

Been out of hospital for a month now. Been taking gabapentin and reduced ropinorole from 4 mg to 3.5 then to 3.25. Getting sleep, and noises and sound is still really loud, but I am able to maintain without completely losing my stuff. I don't let the noises make sense, because if I listen in, it starts to make words and then down the spiral we go. So I've been able to do this at home while taking care of my mom. Honestly would not recommend to anyone, this is my fourth time and have experience with the auditory hallucinations. Just wanted to say it is slowly getting softer and more quiet. Thank you everyone for your support.

Hi discgolruled. Haven’t seen any of your previous posts but what you have been going through and still are sounds like a true living nightmare. I am so pleased that your condition is improving and that you’re back at home again, your Mom must have been so worried about you and hopefully she can see your improvement and is able to worry less. I think you’re amazing and proof that there can be life without Ropinirole and your story will be an inspiration to those of us trying to ditch that drug.

Best wishes
