What Everyone Should Know About Benzos

What are benzos and why should you care? If you’ve been taking anti-anxiety medication or sleeping pills, chances are it’s a benzo. Learn about the downside to benzos, where to turn for help, and what it’s like to withdraw. In our inaugural episode, D E Foster, author of the book, "Benzo Free: The World of Anti-Anxiety Drugs and the Reality of Withdrawal," discusses the basics that everyone should know about benzos whether you’ve taken the drug for years or never even heard of them before. Topics will include the facts about benzos, the history of the drug, a few statistics about usage, and even benzo dependence and withdrawal.
