It's 8:30pm Sunday Night.
I have every intention of keeping this short — and this time I just might succeed.
Nine Years Benzo-Free
August 20th, 2014 — On this date, I took my last dose of clonazepam (Klonopin). I've been benzo-free now for nine years. Yay!
Yes, I still have symptoms. This I must admit. But I can also admit — quite honestly — that I am happy. My life is good, and I have so much to be grateful for.
It gets better. I can't say it any simpler than that. It gets better.
The Book and Websites
August 20th, 2018 — Five years ago today, I published my book "Benzo Free: The World of Anti-Anxiety Drugs and the Reality of Withdrawal." We also launched the Benzo Free Website on the same day. This was the beginning of what we do here today, and a few people started to pay attention.
February 20th, 2019 — Six months later, we launched the first five episodes of the Benzo Free Podcast. Earlier this month, we published episode 125. A few more individuals took notice.
October 2020 — The Benzo Free website became Easing Anxiety, adding general anxiety content to our channel.
March 2023 — The new, and current version of the Easing Anxiety website was published — and it is growing each and every day.
Thank You!
From the very beginning, the one cornerstone of Benzo Free and Easing Anxiety has been you. The listeners of the podcast, the visitors to the website, the terrified individuals desperately seeking information, validation, and connection. You are the heart and soul of what we do here.
Without you — none of this would have ever existed. Thank You!
More to Come...
And, there is much, much more to come. So, stay tuned.
With love and appreciation,

The book and the podcasts were literal lifesavers for me. Congratulations on another year of healing and helping others do the same.
Congratulations!!!! What an accomplishment! It must be so freeing. I truly can't wait to be 100% free.
Thank you for all you do.
God bless
