Frequently asked questions
Get answers to common questions about benzodiazepine addiction treatment
What is the first step toward getting treatment for benzodiazepine addiction?
Acknowledging a benzodiazepine addiction and deciding to seek help is a brave and essential first step toward recovery. While it may feel like one of the toughest decisions, it opens the door to the treatment and support needed to reclaim your life.
Our benzodiazepine addiction program is in-network with most insurances, making it easier to access the compassionate care and resources you need to begin your path to healing.
How long is the inpatient treatment for benzodiazepine addiction?

You’ll engage in daily group and holistic therapy alongside peers, while also working with a personal therapist and case manager to build essential life and coping skills.
Are benzos narcotics?
No, benzodiazepines are not classified as narcotics. They belong to a class of drugs known as sedatives or tranquilizers, which act on the central nervous system to produce calming effects. Common examples of benzodiazepines include Xanax (alprazolam), Valium (diazepam), Ativan (lorazepam), and Klonopin (clonazepam). These medications are primarily prescribed for conditions like anxiety, insomnia, seizures, and muscle spasms.
On the other hand, narcotics typically refer to opioids, a separate class of drugs used primarily for pain relief, such as morphine, oxycodone, or heroin. While both benzodiazepines and opioids have the potential for abuse and addiction, they work in different ways and are used to treat different conditions.
What are the signs of benzodiazepine addiction?
Common signs include increased tolerance, cravings, mood swings, memory problems, drowsiness, and using more than prescribed. Withdrawal symptoms when stopping are also a key indicator.
How do benzodiazepines affect the brain?
Benzodiazepines enhance GABA, a calming neurotransmitter, which slows brain activity. Over time, the brain can develop a dependency, making it harder to function without the drug.
Are benzodiazepines addictive?
Yes. Even when taken as prescribed, benzodiazepines can lead to physical dependence and addiction, especially with long-term or high-dose use.
What should I do if I want to stop taking benzodiazepines?
Do not stop suddenly. Talk to a medical professional about a safe, supervised tapering plan to avoid dangerous withdrawal symptoms.
Can therapy help with benzodiazepine addiction?
Yes. Therapy, especially when combined with medical support, helps address the root causes of addiction and builds long-term coping strategies.
