    Seek medical attention. Yeah walk into your local ER and see if you can find one single doctor that understands Benzo withdrawl, how to treat it or one that even believes you! Good luck with that! Odds are zero to none! This dude has no clue

      Gotta laugh at these filth, they know how long it takes. For me take about a few months to come off, but then the insomnia starts, your body feels like it's been twisted like pretzel and the the demons attack. Speaking for myself, it feels like it felt like I was in a coma for 20 yrs and just woke up. You're just too aware if that makes sense. I'm not going through withdrawal again like that because I live on my own, and I'll stay on 1 or2 a day. Besides I don't like people, been betrayed by too many. So my circle is small

    Very disappointing.
    We all know this by now.Its dangerous, never stop at once (cold turkey), go slow, Ashton manual, bla bla
    But even when you do everything right, it's still hard! And nobody is answering real questions:
    What helps? Which supplements, hearbs, psychedelics, microdozing? When? (In which stage of withdrawal? What dose?

      28 years on klonopin I’m down to .125 I’ve always microdosed it but I need to get off it causes dementia. I am very sensitive so been tapering off about 8 years from .75 mg. I started by only taking 0.5 for a few years then down 1/4 of a pill holding it a few years, then to .25 for several years because I had the worse symptoms on this dose. Now just over a week on .125 and I feel good.
      I’m so ready to throw this medicine in the garbage.. lol. I spent years on each dose reduction but it’s working for me.

      Why stop when it works and the dosage dont need to go up?
      Its not a sin to be sensitive and needing help to function.
      This benzo witch hunt is just evil and unecessary trolling. Just because some cannot control themselves (health workers especially)
      When used correctly one needs it to dare moving forward and develop in spirit and mind. The courage to get out of the house and follow their dreams of becoming who they are. Used correctly.
      All other psychopharmaca ruins that hope and help to develop life skills.
      So stop stressing and shaming people who really need this form of help.

      Yes !! I was in exact dose for three months and quit cold 🥶 it’s day 4 and it’s bad … not as bad as others but still bad . All the symptoms cold/ hot sweats, panic attacks, no appetite, weak, faint , heartbeat irregular, insomnia, all the things… I would get off of these meds asap. It only causes more damage and doctors are know to discontinue meds abruptly.

      Everybody is different. And like he said, typically, severe withdrawals are seen with high dosage, long-term use. Is a serious potential risk, but doctors shouldn’t be scaring people to try and get off of these drugs by almost insinuating, everybody will experience the same withdrawal symptoms .

    I got a question? I been on benzodiazepines for 20 years.
    I was on 6 mg of Xanax per day. I got down to 0.5 a day.
    I stayed stoned with pot. That is how. That. It’s me 20,000 to do!
    I would use 350mg in 3 days of 10.1 or 1.1
    Anyways. I got on klonopin.
    0.5 mg twice a day. I was having to hard of a time using Xanax to tapper off Xanax that is why.
    My question is. Am I going to die? I understand you don’t know.
    But I was told by a girl. That there was hope
    There is a drug. Called phenobarbital
    In a shot form.
    Will that help me? Because it helped this girl
