This is an essential guide for counsellors, doctors, other healthcare professionals, family members and anyone affected by dependency and withdrawal from sleeping pills, other benzodiazepines and antidepressants. Drawn from the author’s personal experience with discontinuing a benzodiazepine prescribed for her dystonia (a neurological condition causing involuntary movements), her many years of supporting others in withdrawal, and her counselling training and expertise, it focuses on healing and empowerment and includes coping tips, success stories, description of symptoms and everything else one needs to know in order to self-care and succesfully overcome this experience.

‘This book gives warm-hearted understanding and practical advice about benzodiazepine and antidepressant dependence and withdrawal. It is based on personal experience, since the author has herself been through withdrawal. She is an experienced counsellor who has already helped many others; this new edition will extend her proved success.’
- Professor C Heather Ashton, DM, FRCP, Clinical Psychopharmacologist and the UK's leading expert on benzodiazepines
‘Withdrawal due to discontinuing antidepressants and benzodiazepines is one of the most difficult of all life experiences. This is the best of the books designed to help. Part of its success comes from the author’s infectious spirit and her relentless positivity and attitude during her own experience, which she relates through sections from her journal. It has clear information about withdrawal symptoms and process, and is an easy read - essential for those whose cognition has been (temporarily) impaired by the withdrawal experience.’
- The Rt. Hon. Luke Montagu, Viscount Hinchingbrooke
An inspirational and supportive guide for anyone struggling to overcome prescription drug dependency
