I have a form of complex ptsd for 15 years and tapering benzodiazepines for around 6 months with doctors advice. Tonight I had uncontrollable spinning thoughts then suddenly out of the blue I felt wonderful, only lates for a few minutes then back to the way I have for the last few years. I have never experienced this before. I don’t understand what just happenrd

Hi Petah
Sounds fascinating yet I'm sure a little scary at the same time.
Can you pinpoint what you were doing preceding this? By the way, you don't have to answer if you don't wish to. If it was in the case of watching a move, for example, could the scene have been some sort of trigger for a sudden shift of consciousness or chemistry?
