Wow, That must of been excruciating coming off 18mg,I have known people that compilated suicide over a severe Benzo detox
The buzzing and side effects in your head is enough to drive one mad,from a Benzo detox
Good Luck to all

No, not at all. I did it over 2 to 2 plus years. Slowly is the key, at least for me. Some people take these medication's for many years or decades and then when they decide they want off they want off quickly. One lady here stopped another medication cold turkey after 30 years and she had a stroke.
Take care,
