Tight, Tense, and Twitching: Muscular Symptoms in Benzo Withdrawal
Without our muscles, we’re nothing. We can’t sit, stand, walk, eat, see, hear, or even breathe. Unfortunately, these same muscles can take a beating during benzo withdrawal. Learn what to expect and how to manage this parade of muscular mayhem.
In today’s episode, we explore the muscular symptoms possible with benzo withdrawal including tightness, spasms, cramps, twitches, tics, pulls, sprains, tears, convulsions, and seizures. We also answer a question on green tea, learn about low blood pressure, and hear a benzo story from South Carolina.
