I came off of a benzodiazepine (Ativan) a couple of weeks ago after taking it daily for a month…it was physically and psychologically painful. I had panic attack after panic attack and my whole body would go tense and i had an irresistable need to pace and wiggle my body. I will never take any of that crap again!
The article points out problems happen when taken not as prescribed.
It’s only noted as a caveat, it’s not the whole article. The article talks about normal use. The other article talks about Xanax and the elderly. Have a good evening. It is widely misused though, especially amongst the mentally ill, so noted. Thanks
I’ve been on daily benzos since May or June now due to being in hospital.
But I think I can stop them when I’m home next week.
I’ll stop suddenly cos it’s only 0.5 clonazepam.
Supposedly stopping suddenly can cause seizures. But I think that’s for higher doses.
