Benzodiazepine (benzo) addiction, involving drugs like Xanax, Valium, and Ativan, poses specific challenges due to its impact on the brain and body. At New Vision Wellness, we offer specialized programs that address these challenges with a comprehensive and compassionate approach. By combining medical, therapeutic, and holistic interventions, we aim to guide individuals toward recovery and restore balance and health.

Understanding Benzo Addiction

Benzo addiction is characterized by the misuse of benzodiazepines, a class of medications typically prescribed for anxiety or insomnia. Key features include:

• Developing a tolerance requiring higher doses

• Experiencing withdrawal symptoms such as insomnia, anxiety, or seizures

• Prioritizing benzo use over obligations or relationships

• Unsuccessful attempts to cut down or control use

Reasons for developing benzo addiction can include prolonged prescription use, self-medication, or recreational use.
