Go easy Eabxj28 It makes no difference how long it takes, the goal

will be the same. I did small cuts every 2 weeks. Symptoms will be there

but not as bad. Good Luck my friend. :) xx

You have done well and are not addicted as you have only been on for 9 days. Don't let doctors convince you to take more if you don't want to. There are other less addictive tablets that could help. I've been on a higher dose of benzos for much longer but recently have decided to reduce with a view to coming off. I'm reducing by 2mg every fortnight with help of my GP but this is flexible. I've got down to 8mg daily now but have hit low mood. I suppose this is to be expected but am hoping this will settle over coming days. Am happy to keep in touch if you want? By the way there is a good online support forum for people on any kind of benzo called benzobuddies. It's worth signing up to if you feel you may have an ongoing issue :-
