> I took lorazepam almost every night for three years for insomnia. It also has a very short half-life. I raised my dose twice because of tolerance. I started to suffer terrible gastrointestinal problems, and it was only after a CT scan and a colonoscopy had ruled everything else out that I realized that benzo interdose withdrawal was causing my problems. It took me four months to taper off benzos. I did a crossover to Valium halfway through the taper.
I'm glad to read that you were successful in tapering off the benzo, Hugh.
