Our team at Rotary Recovery is here to listen and guide.  

Our non-judgmental team of experienced professionals is here to help through flexible, evidence-based benzo treatment in Chicago. You or a loved one may be experiencing benzodiazepine dependence if you have noticed or experienced: sudden shifts in mood or personality, engaging in risky activities, withdrawing from relationships, no longer maintaining hygiene or grooming, and more. If this sounds familiar, we’re here to help.

Benzodiazepines are also known by their branded names, such as Valium®, Xanax®, Ativan®, Klonopin®, and more. Often prescribed for conditions such as anxiety disorder or panic disorder because of their sedative effect, they’re prone to abuse as people naturally build up a tolerance over time. However, lasting recovery is more than possible.  
  

What are the symptoms of benzodiazepine abuse?

Signs that a person may be becoming dependent on benzodiazepines include running out of prescriptions early, taking more than is prescribed per dose, and experiencing withdrawal symptoms (such as anxiety and restlessness) when they stop taking the drug. Side effects of benzodiazepine abuse can be heightened or changed if a person is using the drug with other substances, such as alcohol or opiates.

Long-term misuse of benzodiazepines alone can lead to:
Anxiety, depression, and apathy Insomnia, and loss of appetite
Slurred speech and dry mouth
Headaches, fatigue, and weakness
Dizziness and blurred vision
Confusion, memory loss, and lack of concentration
Nausea, constipation, or diarrhea
Weight gain

What can you expect when starting benzo treatment in Chicago?

Step 1

Intake

During this phase, we’ll get to know you, your needs, your goals, and your  medical history. You’ll be assigned a primary therapist and case manager who will help build a personalized, ASAM-compatible plan for your future. We’re here to support the person you are and the person you want to be.
Step 2

Treatment

With the aid of your therapist and case manager, we’ll determine whether a PHP or IOP is the best fit for you. Depending on which program, your benzo treatment in Chicago can range from three to five days a week. During treatment, your case manager will coordinate with court systems, other providers, and any other necessary services to ensure a seamless recovery process.

 FAQs about our compassionate benzo treatment in Chicago:

Does insurance cover benzo treatment in Chicago?

However, during your initial call, we’ll run your insurance benefits to provide you with an estimate, discuss payment options, and get you the best coverage possible. Our goal is to make the financial aspect of your recovery journey smooth and stress-free. Contact us today at 855-717-0014 to get started.  

Is it safe to quit benzodiazepines abruptly?  

No – it’s crucial to taper yourself off of benzodiazepines under careful medical supervision for both your safety and your comfort. Abruptly cutting off usage can be dangerous, leading to severe withdrawal symptoms and even seizures.   

What are some tips to avoid benzo addiction?

Here are some of the measures you and your loved ones can take to avoid benzodiazepine dependence:

1. Only take your prescribed dosage
2. Only take benzodiazepines if they’re prescribed to you
3. Educate and familiarize yourself with the symptoms and signs of substance use disorder
4. Don’t hesitate – reach out for help if you notice symptoms of benzodiazepine dependence

What are some common signs of benzodiazepine addiction?

The long-term misuse of benzodiazepines can lead to symptoms such as anxiety and depression. People will either lose their appetite and experience nausea, constipation, or diarrhea, or they will gain weight. Dizziness, headaches, fatigue, confusion, and lack of concentration are also common.

You may also notice that you continue to use benzodiazepines despite these symptoms. Neglecting your responsibilities and relationships becomes more common, and you feel compelled to use a higher dose as your tolerance increases.

If you or someone you love is experiencing these symptoms, we offer science-backed, empathetic, and non-judgmental support for benzo treatment in Chicago at every step of your journey. Contact us at 855-717-0014 or complete our simple contact form to get started today.
