I would love to hear some success stories about tapering off a benzo. Is it hell for everyone? Has anyone tapered off easily?

I have tapered down to .25. That has been the best I have been able to do right now

Hi @sears ,
I have been tapering from 1.25mg since September of last year. I decided to taper slower than the different tapers usually recommend. I have done great! I have had very minor symptoms, such as mild muscle spasms off and on, and some jerky movements (myoclonic jerks). But nothing that has changed my life. I am down to almost 0.25 where you are. Wonderful looking back that I am off 1mg! I am hopeful that I will continue to do well, but I will slow down a little more as I get close to the end. Praying you and everyone here does well!

@sears
No problem at all. My taper was uneventful but long. You have to do it slowly. If your having symptoms your going to fast.
