9 weeks off and really difficult right now

[[...]]

Hi,

I've been off benzos for 9 weeks now but the going is really tough right now so I thought I'd write a post to see if I could get some support. I've been on various benzos for about 10 years, the ones I tapered off recently were diazepine and temazepam.

Hello Itv Welcome to BenzoBuddies!

 

I'm sorry you are suffering, withdrawal is awful and symptoms can be severe for a while but it will ease off with some time.  We are glad you found us, I think you will find some comfort communicating with those who are in the same situation as you are.  Congratulations on being benzo free.!

 

We have many supportive and kind members here who will support you and give sound advice. Feel free to check out the forum and post to any of our dedicated threads.

 

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 withdrawal information and includes a list of common symptoms
