Lightbulb This is a very difficult thing...
It can take MONTHS to get someone off benzos.

That needs medical intervention and supervision. I don't think there is
much that folks here can do to help.

I think contacting a therapist or counselor is one thing you can do so you can learn
behaviors that will support your relative.

Take care.

I posted this also on your original thread:

Hi, 4Js, welcome to NeuroTalk. It's a hard road for your relative and he's not alone. Kudos to you for caring so much about him.

For the sake of others, this drug is also known as Xanax.

I was able to locate another forum that is specific to your relative's issue. I hope you can find the information you need here, or somewhere.

Take a look at MedHelp:

Listen,its not going to be easy,slowly come off this drug. I was on 2mg Atavan for 3 years for Anxiety,coming off that tiny pill was hell,but I sweated it and did it. Go easy,less and less week after week,God Bless and stay active and get your mind on happy thoughts,it will be tough,I did it and quit smoking,they were equally as hard...
