I’ve been off benzos for nearly a year now. Could this be some kind of post acute withdrawal syndrome.
Or am I simply feeling really bad and a benzo would help.
Seeing as I’m actually craving a benzo I think there’s a good chance it’s a little bit of withdrawal rearing it’s head.

ive never craved a benzo before! what a weird idea, what does it feel like. is it like craving a soda?
Have you ever been on benzos? They’re addictive.
Could be both at once
I’ve been having the same thoughts about a couple drugs lately. Just want some kind of relief, even if temporary

ive only been on ativan, not as addictive as the others, do you crave benzos in general or a specific benzo?

I’ve only been on cloneazepam and that’s what I’ve been thinking of.

I agree with the other posts,
Its likely both.
I’ve been stressed all week, and its worse today after taking that abilify,
Not surprisingly, I’ve been thinking about how great a benzo would be too.
Never even taken them much,
But when we get freaked out, a quick, reliable solution is primary focus.

Yeah im giving up to this freaking addiction. Started with 6mg now im on 9 and I know its only getting worse. But I didn’t find anything equally cheap and effective to get me sleep.
I’m an alcoholic so I can’t touch drink unfortunately! But good idea otherwise.

It was a long time ago. Maybe a year ago after hospitalisation. But I ain’t getting back to the hospital again.

I doubt your going through withdrawals.
It’s just that your feeling stressed and craving some relief.
