To @aarniek, do not try a detox center for help. They do not know anything about Benzos. I am sorry that at 81 you are still going through PAWS. My husband is 73 and going through PAWS almost two years now. We think he did it incorrectly because asking your family doctor to guide you in Benzo withdrawal is like asking a beautician because neither one knows anything about it. Look up the prolonged Benzo withdrawal syndrome on wikepedia, there are quite a few good points and not so much reading. The Ashton Journal by profeser Ashton of Great Britain has information but I am afraid that it basically comes down to time. I have been scourering the Internet for 5 years trying to figure out my husband's problems and only in the last year come across PAWS. A case of too late smart so I do not think any of the information can help us. Big Pharma knew what Benzos did in 1970 but just wanted to make money so hid it. A special place in hell for those people.
