Benzos Thinking about detox for benzos

[thesoundofmotion]

Been using klonopin daily for almost 5 years now. Have been taking 4mg which is a nice size dose.

My body and mind are fully hooked and I feel like shit most of the time, either from the drug or from tolerance withdrawal.

I'm thinking about just caving in and going to a detox. I can't do these tapers. I always try to cut down but then I just end up where I start.

I'm not really sure what to do, but I need to do something. I can't keep living this way.

i saw your post on benzowithdrawal.com man

if you are going to ask advice, you should probaly at least post your full story so people can give an honest opinion

in my opinion, you need to detox

you are obviously unable to taper yourself, you have been trying for over a year and are at the exact same dose

there is no shame in it man, if you really want to get off the drugs you gotta admit you need help, and help is being offered to you

in detox they will give you comfort drugs to come off

and for the record man, I took higher doses of benzos then you for almost a decade and I cold turkey'd

I am too worn out to give a full story right now.

In a nutshell I am 23 years old, parents want me to finally get help, I am fed up with taking this on a monthly basis. Going to doctors every month sucks. There is a lot of pressure for me to get clean. I've been using other drugs as well, but am not addicted to them.

Tolerance has been increasing throughout the years.

There really isn't much to say anymore, I'm just scared.
