I don’t want to spill the beans just yet. But something really good is coming for the benzo community: a place that is about as one-stop-shopping as you can get! (Including a robot that will blow your mind with what it is going to do for us.)
Stay tuned! I’m tightening up the loose ends and polishing it. I’ll be making a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT soon!
I’m feeling goosebumps! I hope you will, too when you find out what it is!
I can’t wait!

ok what is it
I hope it can help with peace of mind because that’s what I really need please.
The third and fourth cornerstone help with that. Stess less, and be love. Helps to rewire our brain for less anxiety and more peace of mind.
The big reveal is this week! Still working on the last details. I am really excited!
Me either! Working on it today after my coaching clients.
Is it an app like Woebot???
Hello Dr. Jen: I’m a 69 y/o woman given first Xanax for 6 years, then switched to klonopin 1.5 to 2 mg for total of 28 years 6 months, always taken as directed. In 2020 I watched a part of a video of Jordan Peterson where he explained his withdrawal story. I freaked, contacted my doctor, requested to stop. She said “okay” with absolutely no mention of a taper. That was 30 months ago and I’ve never taken another. Withdrawal was horrendous as you well know, no need to go into that. My doctor thought I was exaggerating and wouldn’t even discuss it with me. I’ve never exaggerated symptoms in my life, always avoid docs when I can.
I’m now left with chronic anxiety with huge panic at times, anger outbursts (not at all like ME), poor focus, don’t read anymore and I love books. I’ve been diagnosed with small fiber neuropathy, ADHD, migraines, and paroxysmal ventricular tachycardia. I had occasional migraines before, but not 4-5 a week!
Will this ever improve? If there’s something I can do to speed healing along, I’d love to do that. I don’t want to waste another precious moment on this!
I am sorry to hear you’re suffering. A cold turkey cessation does put us at risk for more intense symptoms and a possibly longer recovery. at 30 months off, you are still in nthe timeline of healing for many. The four cornerstones of well-being are what help us to recover the quickest, in my opinion. They are the foundation for health for everyone, not just people in benzo withdrawal. Check out the resource page on this site. Lots of help there with the cornerstones.
No. It is a bot that helps with the math for a benzo taper.
