Benzo detox?

[Coperniki]

Hey I've been having a rough time getting off 8 years of benzo use, I am seeing a dr and counselor and the counselor mentioned detoxing, I've never detoxxed and was just wondering what to expect. I have been off benzos 2 months, I've quit cold turkey a few dozen times so I really don't feel that great, and relapsed a couple days ago. Just waiting for a call back from her thought I'd get some first hand experience. Thanks

I detox ed off 16 mgs of Xanax but it took me 6-8 weeks WITH a 21 day rehab.  However at the time I went to rehab I had gotten myself down to 1 mg.  I just couldn't kick the rest.  I will also tell you that it took me 2 solid weeks of rehab to beat the Xanax.  They used libruum believe  it or not.  They we end me off in 10 days.

THIS IS HOW THEY WITHDREW ME WITH BY DOSAGE.  Along with therapy, diet, exercise I felt like a new man coming out.  I was given trazadone to sleep because  I only took my Xanax at night for sleep towards the end.  So they switched me to that.  It worked fine for a little whole but then it just stopped doing The trick.   I eventually  got back on Xanax at a low dose and have stayed on it at .5 at night for sleep.  Rehab waant in vein but because  I left and went right back to the same people same place same things everything  just came back.  God bless I'm here if u need me.

The book "Recovery and Renewal", a book by Baylissa Frederick helped me survive benzo withdrawals. I went cold turkey and was in hospital. I did not know about the Ashton manuel. She also has several videos on UTube that are helpful as well as a website. She is on Facebook under "Bloom into Wellness". It is difficult but can be done. Baylissa is a therapist as well as experienced benzo withdrawal.
