What Are Benzodiazepines?
Understanding the Risks of These Common Prescription Medications
Benzodiazepines, commonly called “benzos,” are sedative medications that act on the central nervous system to relieve anxiety, promote sleep, and prevent seizures. While effective when used short-term under medical supervision, they can quickly lead to tolerance, dependence, and addiction when misused.
Some of the most frequently prescribed benzodiazepines include:
Xanax (alprazolam)
Klonopin (clonazepam)
Ativan (lorazepam)
Valium (diazepam)
These drugs can produce a calming or euphoric effect, increasing their potential for misuse. Over time, they can cause significant physical, cognitive, and emotional harm—making professional treatment essential for recovery.
Signs and Symptoms of Benzodiazepine Addiction
Addiction to benzodiazepines can be difficult to recognize, especially when use begins under medical supervision. Key warning signs may include:
Taking more than the prescribed dose or using benzos recreationally
Experiencing withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, tremors, or insomnia
Difficulty functioning without the drug
Memory loss, confusion, or reduced concentration
Seeking multiple prescriptions or using illicit sources
If these symptoms are present, seeking help as early as possible can prevent further health complications. My Life Recovery provides a safe and structured path forward.
