Can it Happen

Hello,

 

Trying to find information, Prescribed clonazepam and did not know. Can you become dependent in 2 weeks?

Or have withdrawal symptoms when quitting?

Hello BetterDays111 :hug:  Welcome to BenzoBuddies. 

 

I am glad you joined, it’s good that you’ve not been taking these drugs long term.  Have you stopped taking the meds?  We have/had members who’ve used these drugs very short term and suffered withdrawal symptoms.  It’s very easy to develop a physical dependency, some people are more sensitive to these meds than others and dependence can happen more quickly. 

 

Check out The Ashton Manual, It is a great resource for understanding the effect benzo’s have on our body. Its great learning that symptoms are indeed temporary.  The manual  also includes a list of common symptoms
