Neither have I. This has only been a month. Every Dr had promised me I would not be having any issues if I took it 2xs day for a month. My gut knew otherwise but my kids said follow the Dr instructions. Well here I am struggling to get off. Be strong. This is a storm that will pass. I am sorry you are struggling. I will pray for you all.

I sympathize with you and the struggle you’re going through, I also take a benzodiazepine daily and I have been doing this for years. I am always trying hard to get off them to no avail, the help with this is sadly lacking over here…I have also battled cancer twice in the past four years so I’m even more anxious. I do feel confident that you can get off these bad drugs, you may have to ask for another med to ease you through the withdrawal symptoms, the longer you take them the tougher it will get. I read somewhere that it takes two weeks of taking these drugs to become addicted to them but again I feel that with some help you will get rid of them, good luck 🤞
