Tina, I invite you to quit your benzos cold turkey for a few days, then return to the forum and share your withdrawal experiences with the rest of us. Anyone who's taken a benzo for an extended period of time should know the horror experienced when you have to go without your medication for a weekend because your Doc isn't in town to fill your script. Or when you accidentally leave your bag somewhere, prescription included, and find yourself the victim of a crippling panic attack because you can't think clearly enough to figure out what to do next. "Bunk", though a very insightful post in itself, just doesn't cut it for me. I'm assuming that your 12+ years experience has given you plenty of time to accept the drug as part of your daily life and probably inspires a defensive attitude when presented with the idea that you're quite capable of living without it should you attempt to pursue that endeavor.
