Benzo Withdrawal.: Yes you can. But, it may take months to get there. One quicker option is to go into a medical detox center and to be medicated through this last phase of your withdrawal. I applaud you for going through this. This choice for your health and the baby's health is admirable. You will be much healthier with out this sedative.
