Can't function


[Sa...]

Recommended Posts

I've been taking Xanax(1mg) and clonazepam(1mg) per day for fifteen years for anxiety. I came to the realization that the benzos are preventing me from function in society. I talked with my doctor and a slow withdrawal plan has been established. I started it one year ago this month and I am still struggling and my life is not working.

Hello Sadscaredsick :hug: Welcome to Benzobuddies!

 

Well done in your decision to come off benzos. You are doing a great job so far. It took me over a year to taper.  This process is tough, but I promise you it will be worth it.  You will get back your life eventually, you have to hang in there, it will get better.

 

I would suggest you read The Ashton Manual, It is a great resource for understanding the effect benzo’s have on our body.  It provides tapering and withdrawal information and includes a list of common symptoms 

 

Here, on the forum you will find some valuable support and information.  Our members are happy to share their personal experiences with you and support you.. Please feel free to browse the boards and post questions to any of the dedicated threads.
