Anyone else get anxious and imagine withdrawal symptoms during taper?
I started tapering after relapsing a CT and I’ve noticed that when I go down a dose, I don’t actually feel anything but sometimes if I think about it enough I’ll convince myself i’m having withdrawal symptoms. Like this morning I went through the night for the first time without my nightly doses, and all night/morning I felt fine but whenever i thought about the fact that I hadn’t taken them I would suddenly feel symptoms.
Almost like a placebo, like I’m expecting them but they’re not there so I anxiously imagine them into existence. It’s just something weird i’ve noticed and am wondering if anyone else also has this issue?
