PLEASE PLEASE READ. I believe that Dr. Peterson NEEDS to see this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flumazenil
In Italy, the GOLD STANDARD FOR TREATMENT of high-dose benzodiazepine dependency is 8–10 days of low-dose, slowly infused flumazenil. One addiction treatment centre in Italy has used flumazenil to treat over 300 patients who were dependent on high doses of benzodiazepines (up to 70 times higher than conventionally prescribed) with physicians being among the clinic's most common patients.
Epileptic patients who have become tolerant to the anti-seizure effects of the benzodiazepine clonazepam became seizure-free for several days after treatment with 1.5 mg of flumazenil. Similarly, patients who were dependent on high doses of benzodiazepines (median dosage 333 mg diazepam-equivalent) were able to be stabilised on a low dose of clonazepam after 7–8 days of treatment with flumazenil.
Blocking off the receptors encourages the receptors which have become downregulated to up regulate MUCH more rapidly. I'm pretty sure that's why it works. The same principle applies when it comes to the treatment of opioid tolerance and dependency.
Another medical breakthrough I am reasonably sure is generally ignored.
Very VERY Frustrating knowing about this and finding out from Joe Rogan's podcast that he had been so damn ill.
Plus there are a variety of Gaba-genics that could have been explored as a possible replacement therapy.
Kava kava root perhaps? Lithium would have helped protect against the potential excitotoxicity as well. And valproic Acid maybe. I'm pretty sure that benzodiazepine withdrawal is excitotoxic.
I pray for Jordan Peterson and family.
Shit he must have been taking a big amount cause I take Xanax and I can tell you it is very hard to get of but I've never felt the need for rehab
My ex was on that shit and she used to break my balls because I smoke marijuana but marijuana is the only drug I've ever touched
JP is a phoney. look at him acting like he didn't know benzos could mess you up. he's a fucking psych proff and he didn't know that? he just turned into a junkie
