If the doctor who put you on benzos to start with, (I hope it was a psychologist or neurologist), they will do a Valium or Librium taper (they both have long durations, not too much of the euphoric effects of triazolos although I think only 2 triazolos are used in the US, I was switched from clonazepam 4mg a day (2x2mg) to 55mg valium first week etc. and we had an entente that if I got uncomfortable at some point we could stop the 5mg less a week but it has to be under 35mg, well I made it to 20mg. A veil of long term memory that doesn't die but just hides back way back in the subconscious comes back into dreams and such, which can be traumatizing etc. They can also script zolpidem and zaleplon for those nights where you can't sleep and reaching for the 10mg blues or the 25mg librium caps.
At 4mg clonazepam a day (def stronger than 6mg xanax a day....due to long duration and the unstimulation (i know i made it up, the word) of your gaba benzo subcomplexes, I was started at 55mg of valium, then the week after 50, then 45 etc., not really following Ashton protocol but still, it was working, until I hit below 20mg at 15mg, then I started worrying about things I can't control again, going mad in my bedroom unable to leave it, North Korea went really damn close to go to war with SK (a bit before christmas 2010), so I went to the hospital and had to tell the doctor there who insisted GAD was treated by antidepressants ONLY. And then I listed what antidepressants I tried, and then I ended up with the one I took for a long time (Paxil) and I told him it made me manic, even more than all SSRI's. His eyes changed, he understood I could be bipolar, and then bumped me back up to 20mg until i saw my psychiatrist, who was a bit unhappy, but I told him, I reduced my consumption of benzos by 66% if we go by equivalence, I feel way more alert and my memory is better and I sleep better than with clonazepam which really blows for sleep unless you have opiates in the mix, which I didn't then. Valium also takes care of some of the pain issue I have in my jaw area, it stops my left ear from getting full and crackling which somehow makes me anxious when it happens and then I get a tick where I can make those 3 little bones for hearing crackle, at least thats what I think is doing those noises....fucked up stuff. So he agreed, lets keep you on 20mg, and later on we can do an Ashton style benzo removal since you are on them since long enough (been 4 years then, now...8).
Or you can go to a rapid detox (not the awesome kind where they put you into a coma of some sort with propofol and other anesthetics for 5-7 days and inject you with anti-epileptics and flumazenil, you wake up totally back to normal, zero tolerance apparently. Some lucky dude here was able to have this done for free to him at a University in Maryland, I forget who though.
What I speak of is places that put people going through all sorts of withdrawal detox place, where they will take you for a week or two max, with phenobarbital to prevent seizures, and no its not a fun barb, at all, it mades your mind blank and often will throw Nozinan (an old school antipsychotic that is also very powerful as a painkiller, it's like one of the best opiate booster if you take just a little, weird drug that Nozinan. People going through this often get out and still want benzos, all they did was force you not to have some, have something that is kinda like benzos to them (them being really stupid textbook following non thinking docs and nurses to prevent seizures and the Nozinan so you actually sleep, it's not a disgusting Seroquel sleep but still...it's been compared to torture, wikipedia has an actual reference for this claim if you look up benzo withdrawal or detox.
I just woke up from a clonazolam and flubromazolam sitting sleep, for some reason I find them more pleasant than the dreaming I have while lying down on my bed heh. Trivial i know but i felt like I had to say it, it's really strange how flub-lam does this for me.
