Well first you would have to get him over the entire taper withdrawal process under the supervision of a specialist because it's very dangerous. And yes, I would say yes he would have to intense anxiety for six to eight weeks, but with some intense therapy and good SSRI and other medications to try out, then he would be ale to hand it a lot better and also work on whatever is causing that anxiety.
If those benzos were prescribed within the first six weeks of seeing a doctor for anxiety, then he is seeing a doctor that doesn't know what he's doing. Benzos are for the worst of the worst anxiety. Daily use of benzos is very, very last resort and I would only use it under the supervision of a specialist.

He was barely able to leave the house before he was prescribed and planned his suicide.

Amanita Muscaria smoked, and eaten (in low doses [1-2 tsp.]) 3-4 days a week, only for a few months cures anxiety.

That's not fixed, that's just annotated. If you actually deny marijuana can increase anxiety levels then you're deluding yourself.
I would say the majority of anxiety and paranoia while tripping, for me at least (and of course ignoring the come up anxiety, that's practically unnavoidable) is due to prohibition. Marijuana I'm still clear headed enough to know it's solely the drug causing the anxiety, but it doesn't make it go away.

Beer has always helped my anxiety. It is like lubricant for the brain machine.

Yea weed can cause anxiety, but in my experience that is only when you smoke too much.

marijuana in itself has caused me paranoia and anxiety. no doubt.
However, I must say I think it was more like it made me aware that I had anxiety...If that makes sense...It brought out my underlining fear of people to the extreme perhaps?
I don't really know but weed certainly made me more aware of my social issues..
It was like all of the sudden when I was high one day I realized I was trying to please everyone around me to feel comfortable about myself...Maybe it was just paranoia...But it makes sense...
