Most people think benzo withdrawal = a few bad weeks. That is regular withdrawal. There is another kind. Protracted benzo withdrawal is a neurological injury. Tinnitus, burning skin, muscle spasms, cognitive impairment. Recovery takes 1 to 5 years. And some people develop it without ever changing their dose.











@jossyoursalad69 @TalkVenlafaxine My cns was horribly dysregulated from psychiatric drug withdrawal. It's really important to know that for some people any kind of supplementation can aggravate an already sensitized nervous system.


Dr. Jordan Peterson didn't have an addiction; he had a brain injury. Benzodiazepine-induced neurological dysfunction is NOT addiction—it's a rare side effect from normal prescribed doses. Addiction is a misused term. #JordanPeterson #BenzoSideEffects
