I didn’t think you could go for benzodiazepines rehab. How would one achieve that?
You’re right.benzodiazepines are a powerful drug and extremely difficult to get off of. I believe tapering off slowly is the key to success and that doesn’t work 100% of the time because nobody likes to wait up to six months to a year before you can see results. Best bet for me would involve my psychiatrist.

You need to consult with your physchiatrist and provide him with a copy of the Ashton Manual to help you taper. It can take a long time to get through the taper process. Using the Ashton Manual you can hold your taper if you’re not doing well. I’ve held many times. I’m 70 years old and I’m not going to stroke out over my taper. I’ve gone from 3 mgs. Xanax per day, 25 years, to 2.5 mgs Valium per day over 3.5 years. My doctor doesn’t rush me and for that I’m grateful. I’ve also gotten off Paxil.
