> Ive heard so many diff opinions on this matter,I just dont know what to do. I think I could do well w/o it and only take occasionally. However, I just dont feel like feeling like crap for weeks trying to taper.I do know that I can fly, I can go to the dentist, I can socialize,sleep, all without panic.Maybe I could do all those things now w/o a benzo. But I continue on with it daily. I keep hearing a little voice say, "the longer youre on it, the harder to get off it..." I dont want to get old and still be taking this pill.
joef,
You wrote,[...I don't want to be old and still be taking this pill...].
There is an ongoing unfolding of evidence to show that benzodiazepine use could cause life-ruining condition. Cancer is now one of those conditions that some studies show a cause and effect relationship with benzodiazepines. The withdrawal could be horrific and put one in a mind-altered state to want to kill themselves.
Now you can see this drug promoted here. What you can not see are those dead people from taking benzodiazepines. They can not speak here to warn you. But you have a head-start. You do not want this drug in you when you are old.
I am prevented from posting here all that I know about benzodiazepines due to the prohibitions posted to me here by Mr Hsiung. If I was not prohibited , I think that lives could be saved, life-ruining conditions and addictions could be avoided.
