Hi all,

 

I’ve been on .5 Clonazepam for three years now, and got to a point where I no longer need or want this in my life.  I’ve been reading a bunch of the posts and it’s great that a place like this exists, that were all going or have been through the same things, and you’ve already helped by sharing your stories.

 

Thanks!

Hello bfree003!

 

We are very glad that you found us!

 

Glad to hear you no longer want this drug in your life. Benzo really was only meant for short term use so this is a wise decision  We recommend tapering at the rate of 5-10% every 10-14 days. Many find that doing a symptom based taper helps to minimize intense symptoms and also may help to keep one more functional day to day. Good luck with your taper!

 

I would also like to suggest that you do some research on the various boards. Becoming well informed should better enable you to make difficult decisions as well as provide you with the tools you need for a successful taper & recovery.  You will find many knowledgeable members who will support your efforts to be benzo free. I have enclosed a few links below that may help you. Check them out!

 

Wishing you a smooth taper & speedy recovery!
