The only reason I ask is because sometimes I take a benzo and have zero withdrawl, and then at other times I take the same dose and go through hellish withdrawl.
I was reading a little bit about this brain chemical (isatin) that your body releases during stress. Apparently the chemical acts as a benzodiazapine receptor antagonist.
I am thinking that if you take the benzo at the right time, you counteract the effects of isatin and thus relieve anxiety. If the dose is right and the benzo and isatin leave your body at about the same rate you might not get withdrawl.
