Georgia Benzodiazepine Addiction Treatment
Compassionate and Comprehensive Benzodiazepine Dependency Treatment in Georgia
Benzodiazepines are a class of drugs that act on the central nervous system to produce calming effects. Common benzodiazepines, sometimes referred to as “benzos,” include Xanax, Ambien, Klonopin, Valium, and Ativan. They are often prescribed for anxiety and sleep disorders like insomnia. When taken for an extended period or in higher doses than prescribed, benzodiazepines can become habit-forming and lead to a debilitating addiction. Benzodiazepine addiction is a serious problem with potentially life-threatening consequences if not treated properly.
At the Georgia Recovery Campus, we have the staff, treatments, and resources to effectively help people battle their benzodiazepine addiction. Our benzodiazepine treatment professionals understand how to safely facilitate the detoxification of this brain-chemistry-altering drug and can serve as an unwavering pillar of support during this difficult time. With our state-of-the-art facilities and innovative, dual diagnosis treatment strategies, we are confident we can help patients overcome their dependencies and heal their minds, bodies, and spirits.

What Are the Long-Term Consequences of Benzodiazepine Addiction?
The long-term consequences of benzodiazepine addiction can be severe and damaging to a user’s physical, mental, and social well-being. Physically, individuals can experience extreme fatigue, an increased risk of accidents and injuries due to impaired cognitive functioning, an increased risk of health complications like heart disease or strokes, organ damage from drug toxicity, and even permanent brain damage. Benzo dependency can also cause depression, anxiety, memory loss, and other cognitive impairments that, without proper treatment, may persist even after the individual stops taking the drug. Those addicted to benzos may also struggle socially by feeling isolated or disconnected from their family members and friends due to their addictive behaviors.
No matter the extent of the addiction, the Georgia Recovery Campus is here to help people start the road to recovery. Our benzodiazepine addiction treatment professionals offer the no-judgment, compassionate support our patients need to retake control of their lives.

The Symptoms of Benzodiazepine Withdrawal
Some people who become addicted to benzodiazepines will realize they have a problem and make an effort to stop. Unfortunately, because of the way the drug alters brain chemistry, they will likely experience harrowing, potentially life-threatening withdrawal symptoms as the brain attempts to reconfigure itself. Therefore, someone addicted to benzodiazepine should only attempt to get off the drug under the supervision of a medical professional. Attempting to navigate withdrawal alone can lead to relapse or even more tragic consequences, including death. Symptoms of benzodiazepine withdrawal may include:
- Insomnia
- Panic attacks
- Nausea and vomiting
- Dizziness and disorientation
- Headaches and muscle aches
- Tremors and shakes
- Tinnitus
- Agitation and irritability
- Hallucinations and psychosis
- Loss of coordination
- Difficulty speaking
- Shallow breathing
- Seizures
- Rapid heart rate and heart failure
