I am on 60mg Temazepam per week at the moment. I have noticed that over the last two months the effect of my dosage slightly decreased which makes me think that I have developed mild tolerance.
However, when I am completely sober I do not get any withdrawal effects at all. My (sober) sleep has not gotten any worse since I started with Temazepam and the same goes for my average anxiety level.
Therefore I wonder what is the cause of my tolerance. Is it just desensitization to the Benzodiazepine receptor binding site at this stage?
Does the GABA-A receptor internalisation and Glutamate receptor upregulation only develop in more severe cases of Benzodiazepine tolerance leading to a withdrawal syndrome?
