Taking a benzodiazepine nowadays is not for the feint of heart. It’s getting worse everyday. I am so happy I am no longer dependent on a benzo. It wasn’t easy getting off but totally worth it. There’s absolutely no way I could live not knowing if or when a doctor was going to yank my script. I now use propanolol as needed for anxiety, and must say it’s been very helpful.

@sears, I totally relate to you, it’s a ball and chain that I drag around and totally limits my life. I am in therapy and working hard to get better control over myself, I didn’t just seek help with my addiction, I went much deeper into the event that started this whole situation. It’s slow going but I feel confident that once I put the negative stuff away once and for all, only then will I be able to gain control over the physical condition. I am very happy for you that you’re free of this stress and it gives me hope that I too can do this, thank you.
