Hello, MeMe! How are you?

It isn't safe to go cold turkey off of benzodiazepines after long-term use, doing so creates the risk of experiencing dangerous seizures.

It is best to taper off of them slowly.

Have you consulted your doctor? They should be able to help you set up a proper and safe tapering schedule.
