| Hello, I had strong headaches several months ago, I guess because of some problems at work. Those headaches made me almost unable to work and I have been taking benzodiazepines in order to get well. I too those without prescription and now I would like to stop taking those but I always feel very sick after several days. Are there withdrawal seizures from this med? |

| I can tell you that benzodiazepines could cause physical and mental addiction, especially after long period of use. I strongly recommend you to visit a doctor, because the situation you are in is far from good. You might be addicted and in that case, maybe you should try to get of the med gradually, not suddenly. |

| whatever you do, don't stop cold turkey if you have been taking them for 2 weeks or more. What dosage did you take? I ran out of mine for 5 days and experienced horrible side effects such as numbness, lost my sense of reality, couldn't function normally, feel like you're in a haze. I've been on them for 13 years but they say that Xanax can really cause some bad side effects if you're trying to come off of them. It has to be a very slow process. Trust me, I know. |
