Hey everyone,
Just a brief background, I used Xanax for 2 years, then switched to Klonopin to start taper off, then I moved to Valium 10mg a day. From there, I went down to 4mg where I'm at now, and finally got my doctor to prescribe me Liquid Diazepam to help me the rest of the way...
I was getting a lot of support from thetrap.org.uk, but as some of you know they have shut down.
I'm using 5mg/5mL liquid Diazepam, and I just have a few questions for people who have successfully tapered off Benzos using this method, and really just liquid medication in general:
1.) I'm going to get a few 1mL Oral Syringes to measure out my dose, and I'm wondering what's the best way to carry around this stuff? I currently am taking 2mg twice a day, so say if I'm going to be gone before I take my 2nd dose, what's a good way to bring it with me? I was either thinking of measuring a dose into a small vial or something like that (keep in mind it's only 2mL), or mixing into a drink to carry around with me?
2.) For those of you who have tapered off Valium, how small of cuts were you making towards the end of your taper? Like .25mg every 2 weeks, or smaller?
It's so much more convenient to carry around pills, but I really want to get off this crap and I'm feeling good about how small of cuts I can make now with the Liquid.
Thanks! :D
