A member asked:

What are some natural remedies to help with clonazepam withdrawl?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

No safe alternative: Depending on duration and frequency of use, withdrawal from benzodiazepines (BZD) like clonazepam can be dangerous. The standard of care is to monitor patients closely and to use prescription medications to decrease the danger and lessen symptoms. No natural supplement is as safe or effective. Seek help from a provider with experience in recovery. 1-800-662-HELP is a national hotline for resources

Think differently: There are no "natural remedies" for anything. "Ancient wisdom" is a myth. It's an indulgence of the ignorant. You can bank on it: Anything touted as a "natural remedy" by health hucksters is almost certainly worthless. Try yoga, meditation, breathing, exercise. Nothing mystical or magical here: These help focus attention and create a sense of well-being. "Ch'i" doesn't exist, either.
