Benzo & Antidepressant Withdrawal: Navigating Relationships | Personal Journey & Insight

Hi everyone,

In today’s video, I’m diving into a deeply personal and often requested topic: how relationships and marriages are impacted during the withdrawal process from benzodiazepines (benzos) and antidepressants.

I share my own story — from meeting my long-term partner when I was in a stable place, to the intense challenges we faced a few years later as I went through the complex and layered process of withdrawal. If you’re currently navigating a relationship during tapering or healing, I hope this brings you some validation, clarity, and hope.

Withdrawal affects every aspect of life, including the emotional dynamics in close relationships. In this video, I unravel some of the unique challenges couples might face during this time.

Have your own experience to share? Drop it in the comments — your insight could help someone else who’s struggling with this right now.
