Re: Has anybody used shrooms to get off of benzos? [Re: Jrey16]

No. Do not do this. Severe benzo (and alcohol) withdrawal happens in three stages: seizure, coma, death.

You need actual medical help to get off benzos.

Make an appointment with a doctor. This is not a joke. Cold turkey quitting benzos will kill your ass, and you will not go gently.

This is why liquor stores stayed open as "essential businesses" during covid. Alcohol and benzo withdrawals, specifically, kill. They both act on your GABA system, which controls brain neuron activation. Suddenly taking away that CNS depression of the GABA system triggers cascading over activation of various neurons. Which is what a seizure is. Then your neurons burn out. Which is what a coma is. And when enough of them burn out, your brain shuts down permanently.

If you're doing it according to most medical guidelines, and you're at 14mg Xanax per day, then you're looking at roughly a two year long taper process, maybe even longer. You will have ongoing headaches, nausea, gastrointestinal issues (lots of diarrhea) and general muscle spasms.

Shrooms won't really help you much (medically) with any of that.

Might make ya feel better, though? I don't really use shrooms for a purpose, if I use shrooms it's because it feels like a shroomy day.

I'm not an addiction specialist, nor am I your doctor, but cutting your daily dose by 5% and then maintaining until the withdrawal subsides (a month or two per cut) should work. If I was you, I'd still seek legit medical attention if you can.

Edit: maybe an optimistic schedule would be to reduce your dose by 0.5mg per month. You should be clean in a bit over two years.
