I'm starting to taper off Clonazepam, which I've been taking for 10 weeks. I suffered a concussion in Nov. and had terrible sleep problems, so I started the Clonazepam along with Doxepin in early January.
My brain is still healing (very, very slowly, it seems) from the concussion, so I'm concerned about doing a benzo withdrawal right now as it might make things worse. But the sleep meds may be making it harder to heal the brain at this point, so I need to ween off them to find out.
I'm wondering what supplements or herbs anyone else has taken that helped them when they were getting off benzos (especially Clonazepam/Klonopin). I have Theanine and GABA already, but am looking for other ideas.
Thanks!
