Hi, @sears - it sounds like in your experience you've run across doctors who are against benzodiazapines (benzos). I believe you'd mentioned in another thread that you were tapering off clonazepam and that you felt doctors are getting pressure to taper patients off of these medications, correct?

A few members on Connect who may have some thoughts on your mention that you feel doctors are against benzos include @jimhd @johnhans @jackt @grandmaj5 @engelee @jakedduck1.

How did your taper go off the benzo, sears, or is it now completed? What medication are you being prescribed instead?

Hi Lisa! It is Xanax not Clonazepam. I haven’t started tapering yet as I’m trying to get stabilized on an antidepressant. Yes I do feel doctors are pressuring patients to taper benzos. My personal opinion is Benzos are going the same way as opioids.
