RE: A never ending nightmare is over

in #addiction8 years ago

Congratulations on your success. I applaud you. It isn't easy to do what you did. I admire your determination to get off of the drugs, and your success in doing so. A couple of days ago, I put up a post about me becoming the third woman in my family to become dependent on benzodiazepines due to hereditary anxiety. My grandmother was on them for 35 years, and was never able to get off them. My mom has been on them for two years, and I have been on them for eight, and we are both currently struggling to get off. And, these are legal prescriptions from our doctors, but it seems so impossible to get off these things. The withdrawal symptoms are too awful. We're trying and tapering slowly, though. Maybe one day, we'll succeed like you did. Have a look at my profile to read my post. Congratulations again on accomplishing something wonderful.
