Been on this drug for 30 years. All Benzos are addictive. All of us are different, & unlikely any 2 people have the same experience with side effects. I was taking 2 mgs a day for sleep & anxiety (15 yrs.) weened down to 1 a day with help of my family doc. It has to be done slowly to be successful. Never had need or desire to go back up. Knew I was physically addicted however. Intended to go to .5, then off, but life events happened & I needed the 1mg per day. I take half around noon & half before bed. Often I forget to take the noon dose, so just take the night dose. The next day I know that I missed a dose, as I can feel it. (The half life of the drug has gotten too low), but I don’t need to make up for the missed dose.) it is dangerous to go off any dose cold turkey. Google this & u will find it can cause a lot of unwanted effects including seizures. Be happy to discuss more of my experiences with K, but they may not be yours.
On a dose of .5mg a day? Crazy. How long did it take to recover after quitting cold turkey?
