My doctor gives me 1 mg lorazepam in the morning and 1 mg lorazepam + 5 mg nitrazepam to TAPER. I don't know how he thinks, I wanted clonazepam for tapering. Anyway, yeah I agree that Xanax is the worst one to come off of...I've been on various benzos for "recreation" for two years and tried to taper unsucessfully a while ago. I'm still trying...it really isn't easy to taper off the things. Good luck!
This probably belongs to the dark side, but has anyone had any luck with tapering with a smaller dose benzo + alcohol instead of a full taper dose to speed things up?
