Any positive stories about Benzo tapering? I need hope

I hope your doctor is young and feels this way. The older docs are more lenient with the benzos than the younger ones. You wouldn’t want him to retire and leave you hunting for a new doctor willing to prescribe Benzos for the rest of your life. I would bet he has no idea how to taper. That’s the problem all of us benzo patients are dealing with.

I have been with the same Doctor for over 30 years and he knows how I have suffered with OCD/GAD/Depression for the long term. He even said to me while I was in his Office that when he looks up Anxiety in the manual he sees my name there. At the present moment, I am in a state of Depression. Some of it is seasonal, some of it is family-related problems and the rest of it is my mental health issues. Leah09
