Benzodiazepine Residential Treatment

Benzodiazepine addiction often starts with a prescription for anxiety or insomnia, and then the drug slowly becomes a substance you cannot stop using, even though you want to. If you have tried to stop but keep going back, or if you feel like you need more just to function, you are not alone. Our benzodiazepine residential treatment program will help you slow down, feel safe, and begin again. With LGBTQ-affirming care and 24/7 support, you get the space and tools you need to reclaim your life.

Types of Benzodiazepine Addictions We Treat at Our Residential Rehab

Benzodiazepines (benzos) are commonly prescribed for anxiety, insomnia, and seizure disorders. But when misused or taken long-term, they can lead to physical dependence and withdrawal when you try to stop. At our benzodiazepine residential treatment facility, we treat addiction to several types of benzos, and each drug comes with its risks, effects, and withdrawal and recovery concerns.

Xanax (Alprazolam) Addiction

Xanax is a fast-acting benzo used to manage anxiety and panic attacks. Because it works quickly but wears off fast, people often take it more frequently, and this tendency increases the risk of addiction. Withdrawal from Xanax can be especially intense, sometimes bringing back anxiety worse than what you had before or causing new symptoms like body aches and irritability. 

Valium (Diazepam) Addiction

Valium is a longer-acting benzodiazepine used in treating muscle spasms, anxiety, or seizures. Its calming effects can be appealing, but tolerance quickly builds, and people may find themselves needing more for the same effect.

Mixing Valium with opioids or alcohol can be life-threatening, and quitting with expert help can lead to severe withdrawal symptoms that cause people to relapse. In residential treatment, clients have the benefit of 24/7 support during this slow taper, plus group and individual therapy that addresses the deeper causes of use. Treatment may also include mindfulness, relapse prevention skills, and emotional processing.

Ativan (Lorazepam) Addiction

Ativan is usually used for short-term anxiety relief or before medical procedures. It acts quickly, which can make it more habit-forming for some people. Misuse can lead to sedation, memory problems, and dependence.  In a residential setting, clients pause from their routines and learn sustainable alternatives for emotional regulation.

Klonopin (Clonazepam) Addiction

Klonopin is often prescribed for panic disorders or epilepsy. Because it stays in the body longer,  people may not notice that they are becoming dependent until they try to stop and experience withdrawal. We often see clients who have taken Klonopin as prescribed but still developed a dependence. Our benzodiazepine residential treatment center provides a supportive environment to work through both the physical and emotional aspects of withdrawal.

What Kind of Care Will I Receive in Benzodiazepine Residential Treatment?

If you are considering benzodiazepine residential treatment, you might be feeling overwhelmed or unsure of what to expect. That is completely understandable because leaving all you know behind for somewhere new is no easy feat. However, there is no reason to fret because we will offer you safety and community.  

While each treatment varies for everyone because they need different things, here are some of the core components you can expect:

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy in the form of talk therapy is a central part of our benzodiazepine treatment program. It is trauma-informed and paced to meet you where you are. During sessions, we try to understand how your thought patterns, behaviors, and past experiences influence substance use so that we can help you build new, sustainable habits.

Structure

One of the most healing aspects of residential addiction treatment is structure. Each day includes activities designed to support your recovery: therapy, peer support, wellness practices, and time for rest. For many people, the consistency of a daily routine provides safety and stability that they had been missing for a long time.

A Continuum of Care

A residential program is part of a larger continuum of care, which often includes detox, outpatient rehab, or long-term aftercare. Your care team will help assess your needs and create a responsive plan that adapts to your evolving needs.

Support

Residential treatment surrounds you with a team of compassionate professionals and LGBTQ peers who understand what it means to recover. Whether you are struggling with isolation, fear, or shame, support is always nearby.

Holistic Treatment

Addiction is often connected to stress, trauma, and for LGBTQ people, systemic discrimination. That is why Pride Detox offers holistic care with mindfulness, nutrition, physical activity, and creative expression included in our treatment. You will also connect you to local sober communities, so your healing can continue beyond residential treatment.
