Very interesting questions.....
I read that long term benzo use causes anxiety so I thought if I can get off them then I maybe anxiety free? I have very little knowledge on benzo tapers. I counted earlier.....I have 211 x 0.25mg Clonazepam tabs and the Dr wont prescribe me anymore, so I have 211 days to get off 0.25mg which should be easy enough especially as going to try swapping to 5mg of Diazepam and seeing how that feels. At present it is very embarrassing as I am agoraphobic so missing out on so much of life. I have a girlfriend and 2 daughters and cant take any of them out, not even down the road for something to eat. I missed out on going out for my eldest daughters 18th birthday a few months ago, that really got me down......I would do anything to be anxiety free.
