My introduction


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I've been on and off benzos for a period of about 6 years now. Usually in very high doses and every time for a relatively short period. This has always been pure abuse and was never prescribed by a doctor.

 

The benzos i've used are: alprazolam, diazepam, clonazepam, temazepam, flunitrazepam and maybe some others i forgot about.

 

Anyway i've abused these benzos because I recreationally used uppers such as cocaine, speed and mdma and needed benzos to fall asleep.

 

I've gone through hellish withdrawal 2 times, once tapering, once cold turkey, and i'm worried a 3rd time is coming. That's why I would like to ask a question regarding the chance another one is incoming since this might cause the end of my business. Would love to hear your opinion. Will post the question after my account has been approved.

 

Since my experience with different kind of benzos and withdrawal is pretty extensive, feel free too ask me anything.

 

Cheers,

 

IDKFA

Hi idkfa.

 

Glad you’re here for information and support. Each successive benzodiazepine withdrawal tends to be more symptomatic, so if you’ve already had some rough withdrawals, a careful taper is probably in order this time.

 

Here’s a good board to post your questions about withdrawal: Withdrawal Support (during your taper)

 

Other members replying to your posts generally prefer to know where you are in the process, so here’s how to add your benzodiazepine information automatically to your posts: go to Profile, then Forum Profile, write your pertinent info (benzodiazepine, dose, taper history) in the text box and save. Thanks! Let us know if you need help with this.

 

Take care,

Challis  :smitten:

 

The Ashton Manual is a comprehensive and highly regarded free online resource about benzodiazepine use, withdrawal and recovery. If you’re not familiar with it we recommend having a look.
