Yeah, benzo withdrawal is pretty scary for some :-/ I am very sorry.
Right now you are symptom free on 1mg? If so, give yourself lots of credit IMO for that reduction.
My thoughts are that you might be more successful if you reduce that last milligram more slowly. How slowly, I can't advise. However, if you take a longer view on this, you will likely have less withdrawal stress to body and mind.
Would it be o.k. with you to take one month, two months, three months to really kick it? That way, your body isn't bouncing through rebound, and you can begin to add the support supplements and give them time to kick in.
Benzo withdrawal can be super tough for some (me :-/) It's not about you or
strength or will.Do you need to be off this last mg asap?
I dig a pony.
