Hi Pasqual  Welcome to Benzobuddies

 

Are you looking for taper advice?  We have plenty of information and support here.    If you taper slowly it can help minimize the withdrawal effects.  It is generally recommended to taper no more than 5-10% every 10-14 days.  This is a guideline and  it is ok to adjust this schedule for your own comfort.

 

We have a good community here,  our members are very knowledgeable and friendly people who understand this process.  They will be willing to share their experience with you. 

 

I would suggest you read the  Ashton Manual , it is an excellent resource for information about these medications and gives a lot of information about withdrawal/tapering. 

 

Here are some helpful links:

 

The Ashton Manual.

If you would be so kind as to add a signature (history of meds/doses etc) it will help members give you relevant advice this link will show you how to”Create a signature”

 

Feel free to ask questions so that members can respond

 

Welcome aboard

Are there any doctors in Northern california who specialize in Lorazapam taper following catatonia? Are there any benzobuddies out there who were put on benzos for catatonia and managed to get out of catatonia and off of benzos without going back into catatonia?
