Benzodiazepine Addiction

Has a benzodiazepine addiction taken over your life?  Are you at the mercy of your medication? Now is the time to get the help you need.

Benzodiazepines are tranquilizer medications commonly prescribed for anxiety, insomnia and other medical conditions.  Familiar benzodiazepine brand names include Xanax and Valium.

While legitimately prescribed, these types of drugs are often abused because people enjoy their sedating effects. The widespread availability of the drugs is another contributing factor as to why benzodiazepine addiction has become such a problem.

Effects of Benzodiazepines

When taken correctly, benzodiazepines are well tolerated and provide effective relief for insomnia and anxiety. However, when the drugs are abused, serious side effects can occur including:

  • Dizziness
  • Confusion
  • Drowsiness
  • Blurred vision
  • Slurred speech
  • Breathing difficulties
  • Coordination problems
  • Coma

If you have a benzodiazepine addiction you should not abruptly stop taking the drug!  Serious withdrawal symptoms and sometimes even seizures can occur.  The safest, most effective and comfortable way to break the bond a benzodiazepine has on your life is at a quality drug rehab center like Stepping Stone Center for Recovery.

TESTIMONIALS

I know you will never believe it but it has been ten and a half months since I finished treatment and am still in recovery. I know you will say it may be more of a miracle that I finished rehab being that I was about as resistant a patient can be, but I am making it one day at a time. Special thanks to Robert.

This is to my therapist Bobby, who never gave up on me. I could never have made it through rehab without your patience. You taught me that I am worth it.

-- Bryan, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

My life was a shambles, my husband wanted a divorce and my children wouldn't speak with me. I felt hopeless until we all got together for family treatment. While we all have some hills to climb, my recovery is solid. Who would have thought, 476 days sober. Love to all.

-- Patti P, Atlanta, Georgia

You guys were right when you told me to get right into meetings. They have kept me clean and sober and I have made a lot of good friends. Thanks for bringing meetings into rehab.
