I too am an addict. I abused benzos. I think it was just the first time I took them things in my mind slowed down and I was able to rest and relax. I wasn't on any meds for no yet so my mind ran a hundred miles an hour non stop 24/7. Having that peaceful feeling just immediately took me in. Self medicating. I never knew it was normal for a mind to be calm. I thought everyones mind was like mine. Once you have the right med combo and your stable I believe you will find just like me that those cravings will be few and far between. I have been off the benzos for 2 yrs and 2mo 3days. I rarely ever think about it anymore. Maybe every 3 months or so. It gets easier every day. You can do this. Just remember when you get the strong cravings that this too shall pass. Take a few deep breaths and occupy your mind on something productive. You got this!
