Healing is Possible.
We are building the resource we wished we had: a calm, science-backed space to navigate the journey off benzodiazepines.
Our Mission
The internet is filled with horror stories about benzo withdrawal.Taper Off Benzos exists to replace fear with facts.
Our goal is to make the gold-standard Ashton Manual protocolsaccessible, digestible, and actionable for modern patients. We believe that with a slow, patient-controlled taper, the nervous system can and will heal.
Who We Are
Taper Off Benzos is an independent educational initiative dedicated to safe deprescribing awareness.
We are a collective of researchers and advocates who understand the complexity of benzodiazepine dependence. We recognized a gap between dense medical literature and the immediate needs of patients seeking answers.
Our content is generated using a strict synthesis of medical literature, survivor reports, and the guidelines set forth by Dr. Heather Ashton. While we use advanced technology to help structure and organize this vast library of knowledge, every article is rigorously fact-checked against established protocols before publication.
Editorial Standards
We do not accept funding from pharmaceutical companies or treatment centers. Our only "bias" is towards safety, slow tapering, and informed consent.
