> Maria how would providgil act to calm you never taken it and how did you detox and from which benzos? Love Phillipa

Hi Phillipa,

Don't know how calming Provigil is, but it's sometimes prescribed for people with ADD/ADHD. I only meant to reflect on Shaner's question about avoiding the build up of tolerance.

Quitting benzo's was really hard. Especially the first few days. Insominia hit hard and so did intense feelings of anxiety/dispear.

* First week
Cut down from 2 Ativan daily to 1 daily.

* Second week
Cut down to half a tablet daily.

* Third week
Take half a tablet on alternating days.

* Fourth week
Take half a tablet only as an emergency.

And so on...

Hope this answers your question.

My best,
Maria
