Synopsis

This is a withdrawal plan for coming off tranquillizers which involves assessing the side-effects of the drugs and examining the withdrawal syndrome. The mental and physical effects of withdrawal are discussed and there is a self-help programme as well as case histories illustrating the text. The book is designed for people who find themselves faced with the problems of benzodiapine dependence and withdrawal. The author, a trained nurse, draws the attention of the public and the medical profession to the adverse effects of long term benzodiapine use and the difficulties of withdrawal. Trickett's efforts in the field of phsyical and psychological problems that can confront those coming off tranquillizers led to the instigation of a tranquillizer suppport group, "Come Off It", in 1982.
