"Weaning off benzodiazepines should be done very slowly and under professional medical advice. One person managed to reduce their dosage from 3 mg daily to 1mg as needed over a period of 6 months with their doctor's guidance. Another person was cross tapered to another benzodiazepine, Valium, from Xanax XR. It's important to do this process carefully and patiently, with regular check-ins with your doctor."
