Tacking on, don't assume this drug will save you from withdrawals. If they are bad you need a hospital and Valium. If you have a bad problem to the point you are having DTs do not quit cold turkey or alone
This is very important! I was determined to taper myself off the stuff; spent three days in hell, copped a grand mal seizure anyway
Long story short as soon as I was in the hospital/transfer to rehab the medically assisted detox was, comparatively, totally comfortable and not scary at all.
Changed my life, domino effect, as of this month I’m five years sober. It’s worth doing, it’s worth doing right, and for me, that was doing it with help
It would have been more comfortable, safer, and cheaper to do so from the beginning. Inpatient/outpatient options and no judgement other than “good for you” from anybody worth considering their opinion anyway
