About to begin Benzo taper


[De...]

Recommended Posts

I've been on 1.0 mg of clonazepam for 5+ years, flurazepam before that.  My former psychiatrist prescribed it for insomnia caused by antidepressants.  I plan to begin tapering in August 2017.

Hello, Determined32061. Welcome to Benzo Buddies! We're glad to have you here. I'm happy to hear you're planning your taper ahead of time. Becoming informed and planning ahead will help you to taper successfully with fewer symptoms. There is a wealth of information on this forum to help you with your taper.

 

You may find these boards to be particularly helpful:

 

General Taper Plans

 

Withdrawal Support (during your taper)

 

Success Stories 

 

You can locate our other boards with many more resources from our home page: BenzoBuddies Community Forum.

 

You will find stickies in bold pinned at the top of the boards. These threads contain information that our members have found to be particularly helpful. Feel free to start your own thread on the relevant board and ask any questions you may have about withdrawal and recovery. Just click on the board name and then click New Topic.

 

I'd also like to give you a link to the Ashton Manual. Dr. Ashton is an expert on withdrawal from benzodiazepines. Much of what we know about benzodiazepines and successful withdrawal comes from her work.

 

The Ashton Manual

 

Finally, I'd like to ask you to read the stickies on our Community Policies & Documents and to Add a signature . Doing these two things will help you to connect with our community and find the help you need.

 

Best wishes on your journey to health and healing,
