It’s horrible being trapped by addiction. It is true withdrawal can increase your seizure threshold if you miss a dose, lower to fast or quit cold turkey of this med.

I’m not sure if the prescribing doc knows you are getting additional pills from other sources or not (saw another post you’re getting them from the street). You could tell him/her what is happening or seek help from a rehabilitation center for withdrawal and detox if you want to stop safely. 🌺
