I need the support and I have nobody. Not one single friend or family member and I have a 16 year old son to take care of. I do not know where else to turn. Please help me.

Hello, futureforme :) - welcome to BenzoBuddies!

 

So sorry you are suffering - you will  find plenty of support here. :thumbsup:

 

I'm so glad you decided to join the forum - you'll find plenty of information and support here. Our members have gone through all aspects of benzodiazepine use and withdrawal, so you'll be able to connect with others who understand what you're going through.

 

Here are a couple of links that may be a good starting place for you:

The Ashton Manual is an authoritative resource on what to expect during withdrawal and recovery. It provides information that can be very reassuring during any stage of this process, including a list of common symptoms with helpful explanations.

 

For those who are currently tapering, a starting guideline is that the dosage not be reduced faster than by 5-10% every 10-14 days, although some taper even more slowly than that. One exception: very short-term users of a few weeks or less may be able to taper somewhat faster.

Would you like to share with us here, what benzo-based medicine do you take, doses and for how many years?

 

I was in bad shape with clonazepam taken daily over 3.5 years when I stumbled upon this site. With the wise words from an administrator (pianogirl  :smitten:) I found resources to fight the hard withdrawal battle and got out alive. I used titration with water. I'm now 2.5-month benzo free and feeling good. I'm sure with the help from buddies in this BB you too will win the battle and will heal. Fight and don't let go!
