Help with Benzo Addiction
Benzo Withdrawal
A person who is dependent on benzos is said to be suffering from benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome.
Since benzodiazepines are an extremely potent drug class, it doesn’t take much for a patient to develop dependence and withdrawal symptoms. Signs of physical dependence can manifest in as little as one month of continuous use. In fact, close to 40% of people using benzos for extended periods are likely to experience withdrawal symptoms. Putting not only recreational and irresponsible users at risk, but also patients’ health at risk. The remaining 60% of users will experience milder symptoms if they suddenly stopped taking the drug.
Understanding the withdrawal symptoms of benzodiazepines is critical for anyone taking them, or anyone whose loved one might be taking the medication. Being able to identify these symptoms could help legitimate patients and their loved ones identify if the line of addiction has been crossed and help is needed.
Benzo withdrawal symptoms are similar to those associated with other drugs that depress the central nervous system, such as alcohol.
