Drew,

I can guarantee based on the time you used it (4 wks) and the low dose....taking it slow will not be like the hell you endured cold turkey. Don't cave ok. I know its hard to have faith like you said in the middle of withdrawal but take it slow, chin up and dont cave. Listen to your body...add supplements like i mentioned in last post or a lil restoril or valium or go down then add just a tiny smidgen of ativan when you feel crappy the continue down.

If the pills are small to break up properly...experiment with dissolution. Figure out through trial and error if they dissolve in juice or water....if they do. Measure a certain quantity of juice/water...dissolve one pill in it then you can aliquot (remove/measure out) portions as needed...you will have exact doses there...then put rest of liquid in fridge. Ive done this with other meds in past. works good just need a wee bit of experimentation.


> Thank you both for your help. I just have to have faith i'm almost there. that's just hard to have when your in the middle of serious benzo withdrawal. taking it again tonight I feel much better. I am praying that doing it slower will not be so much like being in hell.
