New BenzoIsland

New BenzoIsland I m sick of reading news of people committing su***des. I want to provide info to patients on benzo & AD to taper off safely.

I was prescribed in Sept 2005 & tapered off in Aug 2006 with help from online forum BenzoIsland which closed in 2009.

For those tapering off your benzo and anti depressant - Tapering in summary

Based on my experience, you can taper off both your benzo and AD at the same time slowly and safely in accordance with the Ashton Manuel, i.e. a recommended 6 months taper.

The benzo or sedative or low will provide a buffer against the AD (a stimulant or high) so you can taper off the AD much faster. Always follow how you feel.

Unless you are prescribed va**um to take, first you have to cross over from your benzo to an equivalent dose of va**um. The Ashton Manual will guide you on how to cross over to va**um.

You have to inform your GP or psychiatrist that you want to taper off your medicines to recover and regain your life and request for va**um prescription to support your taper.

First of all, go on the recommended healthy diet for at least a month to prepare your body for tapering. Taking zinc will prevent anxiety. Taking a probiotics like sauerkraut or kimchi will replenish the gut with good bacteria which will produce serotonin, the neurotransmitter that make us happy, calm and confident. It will prevent depression. Sunlight will boost serotonin production. Light to moderate exercise will provide feel good chemicals.

Do a proper crossover from your current benzo to va**um in 3 to 4 weeks without kicking off any withdrawal symptoms. First week, take 3/4 of your current benzo and 1/4 of equivalent va**um dose. Second week, take 1/2 of your current benzo and 1/2 of equivalent va**um dose. Third week, 1/4 of your current benzo and 3/4 of equivalent va**um dose. Fourth week, 0 of your current benzo and 1 or full dose of equivalent va**um.

AD must be taken in the morning at breakfast so that by evening, there will be no more stimulating effect. So you can sleep at night. If your psychiatrist prescribes AD as night or before bed dose,
you have to switch to morning dose slowly and safely without kicking up any withdrawal symptoms in 4 weeks. First week, take 3/4 as night dose. Next morning, take 1/4 dose. So that in 24 hours, you take 1 full dose. Second week, take 2/4 as night dose/ Next morning, take 2/4 dose. Third week, take 1/4 night dose. Next morning, take 3/4 dose. Fourth week, take zero night dose. Next morning, take 1 full dose. You have successfully switched from night to morning dose.

After successful crossover, then you can start tapering off the va**um at the recommended rate of 10% reduction per week. Use a pen knife to cut the tablet into halves, then quarters and finally 1/8 or 10%. Approximate 10% reduction per week. Prepare the dosage for a week in pill dispenser. At half way, reduce or slow down the tapering by half or to 5 %. A total of 2minimum 4 weeks or 6 months taper is recommended.

Follow the Ashton Manual on "HOW TO WITHDRAW FROM BENZODIAZEPINES AFTER LONG-TERM USE" and "Why should you come off benzodiazepines?"

Always follow how you feel. If you feel you have unbearable withdrawal symptoms after you make a taper reduction, either maintain that dosage for a few weeks until the withdrawal symptoms subside or go back up to the last dosage where you dont have any withdrawal symptoms. Once you feel you dont have anymore withdrawal symptoms,, then resume taper again.

Please be reminded that your taper can take longer than 6 months. Always taper slowly and safely. No rush or short cut. The weekly taper rate is to allow your brain to heal for 10% during first half of taper or 5% during second half of taper, before the next reduction. If your brain hasnt healed in that 1 week, you will still have withdrawal symptoms. That is when you should maintain the dosage for 2 or more weeks or go back up to the last dosage where you feel fine. Resume the taper when your brain has healed or you fell better.

Too fast a taper will result in protracted withdrawal symptoms as the brain hasnt healed completely yet or relapse. In such a case, when you have unbearable withdrawal symptoms that interfere with your life, you may have to go back up to the last dosage where you feel fine or go back up to the original dosage to provide you with a buffer. You may NOT need to go back up on your dosage with AD as va**um will give you a buffer or protection.

It is not easy but doable. I wish you SUCCESS in your taper to recover and regain your life to live a normal, happy, joyful and enjoyable life instead of anxiety, depression, misery, insomniac, suicidal thoughts, fatigue, no motivation or feeling like a zombie.

MEDICATE WITH SYNTHETIC FOLIC ACID WITHOUT MY INFORMED CONSENT

Everyone, please ask or write to your Minister of Health "Why do you medicate me with synthetic folic acid without my informed consent? Tell him to remove synthetic folic acid from our wheat flour and bread bc it causes depression, su***des and killings.

The Minster of Health did not get our informed consent for medicating all of us with synthetic folic acid and he will face lawsuits for negligence, battery, fraud, or breach of contract, depending on the nature and severity of the harm caused by the synthetic folic acid which causes depression, su***des and killings. An average of 9 Australians commit su***des' everyday. If this is not a big concern, then what is?

My comment on below news:
For someone to commit such a heinous crime, he must be a mental health patient on benzo and AD that cause him to kill his sons in such horrendous way. He quoted the bible, jailed for life, not given the death penalty. If he is a mental health patient, then the psychiatrist and pharmaceutical company drugs should be held accountable, not him and they should go to jail.
We read this kind of news frequently nowadays bc mental illness is a manufactured disease caused by synthetic folic acid, required by law to be fortified in wheat flour. Why not fortify with natural folate that doesn't cause any problem to anyone? Why need to fortify wheat flour with folic acid for the whole country to take? What disease does the govt try to prevent? Neural tube defects in babies. Pregnant mothers have been prescribed with folic acid for decades and many mothers suffered depression/mental illness after giving birth. Why don't docs prescribe folate? Folate is found in many foods - eggs, meats, vegetables, grains, beans, seeds. It is not enough big pharma poisoned mothers with folic acid, they are poisoning the whole country. Synthetic folic acid should never be manufactured. It's sole purpose is to cause mental illness in mothers and people. There is natural folate. Big pharma is so evil and our corrupted govt officials are cohorts. People around the world, please petition your MP to stop folic acid fortification in wheat flour to prevent this kind of tragedy. Instead fortify with folate.

My comment:
"Investigators found bottles of diazepam, amitriptyline and trazodone from the family home.

During pregnancy, her doc prescribed synthetic folic acid for her to take, which causes depression in 44% of world's population with mutated MTHFR gene. Her doc should be held accountable for causing her depression. Why didn't her doc prescribe natural folate which doesn't cause any problem to anyone. When she had postpotum depression, she went to see her doc to get well, instead the doc prescribed her very addictive, dangerous and deadly benzo - diazepam, a sedative which will cause depression to her who already had depression. How to treat depression with a depression drug? To counteract the sedative, doc always prescribe an AD or stimulant. In her case - amitriptyline and trazodone. She was overdosed with 2 ADs?

Speaking from my own experience. A depressed patient cant sleep so her brain is tired. Taking diazepam and 2 ADs would definitely drive her into psychosis when she killed her children and then attempted su***de herself.

"An expert then concluded the drugs could have placed Clancy into a coma or even cause a heart attack but not push her into a homicidal rage." The expert was wrong. He had no experience taking these medicines. I had and these medicines drove me to want to kill myself 4 times. An online forum warned me beforehand of possible su***des. Fortunately, I didn't succeed.

Her docs and the medicines' pharmaceutical companies should be held accountable, not her.

Su***des in Australia

Mandatory folic acid fortification of bread making flour was introduced in Australia in 2009 to provide additional protection against Neural Tube Defects in babes in mothers' wombs during pregnancies'. Bread was chosen as the appropriate food vehicle for fortification as it is consumed regularly by a large proportion of women of child-bearing age across different demographics. Why not prescribe to pregnant women alone? Why medicate the rest of us men and non pregnant women, boys and girls with folic acid without our informed consent?

According to statistics, on average, 9 su***des' occur per day in Australia. It is 12.3 per 100,000 population, one of the highest in the world.

According to the graph, number of su***des fell form 2000 to 2009. After the introduction of synthetic folic acid in bread, it skyrocket again.

Synthetic folic acid causes depression which leads patient to see docs or psychiatrist and prescribed a benzo and an antidepressant to take. These very addictive, dangerous and deadly medicines can cause patients to commit su***des' or to kill other and then kill themselves. You can read theses in the news soo often nowadays.
Mental health disease is a manufactured disease becos of folic acid. It is so sickening to know that he Australia and New Zealand Food Regulation Ministerial Council (now the Legislative and Governance Forum on Food Regulation) passed such a mandate. They must be corrupted be pharmaceutical companies. The FRMC officials who passed these mandates should be held accountable for the creating so many mental health patients, so many su***des and killings and causing so much emotional traumas to families and loved ones.
Why didn't FRMC mandated natural folate which doesn't cause depression or any problems in people. Are they so incompetent? Bcos they want to make people fall into depression and see their doc and prescribed medicines for life.

Bcos they are so addictive, patients cannot stop taking these medicines. If they do, bcos of the horrendous withdrawal symptoms, they are put back on these medicines. They are called rebound or patients metal health conditions getting worse. The patients are blamed. No. It is bcos the medicines are so addictive, patients need to taper for 6 months slowly and safely, in accordance with the Ashton Manual to get off the medicines to get well. Very few mental health patients do this.

I dont take any products made from wheat flour. I take products made from rice.

Anyone anywhere around the world, after reading this, please go to your member of parliament to pass a law to replace synthetic folic acid with natural folate and stop this skyrocking cases of mental illness, su***des and killings. And prosecute the officials who mandated it to the full extent of the law and put them in jail and the pharmaceutical companies which medicines dont work but cause untold misery anxiety, depression, insomniac, fatigue and cause patients to commit su***des' or kills others, them kill themselves.

I know as I have taken these medicines and live to tell the tale.

We must put a stop to this ever happening again. We must build a grassroot movement in every country all over the world to counter the well organized well funded pharmaceutical companies. As a remembrance to BenzoIsland which helped me to regain my life, we will call our movement New BenzoIsland. We need to form this movement as there are many synthetic chemicals' in our food, our air, our water that causes diseases.

So please someone in each country or city or town, please take the lead to form our movement. Build your own local New BenzoIsland FB page and link it to my page. Let's all get organized. Dont expect any govt dept or agency or person will take care of our interests. It is proven in every case, they dont.

Together we can do it. United, we are strong.

Su***des in USA

"After a long, steady decline in national su***de rates, those numbers began steadily ticking up in the late 1990s and have generally risen ever since, with nearly 50,000 people in the U.S. taking their own lives in 2022, up 3% from the previous year."

"In March 1996, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) mandated that by January 1, 1998, all products made from enriched cereal grain flours be fortified with folic acid at the level of 140 µg/100 g of flour (1.4 mg/kg) to prevent NTDs [16]."

Synthetic folic acid causes depression in which leads patient to see docs or psychiatrist and prescribed a benzo and and antidepressant to take. These very addictive, dangerous and deadly medicines can cause patients to commit su***des' or to kill other and then kill themselves. You can read theses in the news soo often nowadays.

Su***de deaths by s*x in Australia from 1907 to 2022. The trend is skyrocketing!

What is the Minister of Health and his trained medical professionals doing about it?

By the trends skyrocketing up, it can be said that they fail miserably.

Please engage your respective MPs to support Terry Healy, MP of Southern River, WA, to pass 2 laws in Parliament.

09/07/2024

Over 3,000 deaths by su***de occur each year in Australia In 2022, there were 3,249 deaths by su***de – an average of about 9 deaths per day – with a rate of 12.3 per 100,000 population.

What do the Minister of Health and his trained medical professionals doing about it? Nothing is the word. Or whatever they are doing is not working.

To prevent over 3000 preventable su***des a year and the emotional trauma suffered by loved ones, please get your respective MP to support Southern River MP, Terry Healy, proposal for 2 new laws to be approved:

1. Psychiatrists or docs who prescribe benzo and AD and any mental health medicines must educate and help patients to taper off the medicines, after 6 months to 1 year of taking, slowly and safely, in accordance with the Ashton Manual, so they regain and live normal happy lives with their families.
2. Mental health department of govt and private hospitals are to educate and help patients to taper off their medicines, after 6 months to 1 year of taking, slowly and safely in accordance with the Ashton Manual, so they regain and live normal happy lives with their families.

Together, we can do it.

This is my comment on Daily Mail to below news:
As one who have experience been treated with benzo and AD and the horrendous experience I went through with these medicines that didnt work but make my life so worse like hell and that these medicines messed up my brain so much that I wanted to kill myself 4 times, the mother should be exonerated of her actions as her actions were caused by these useless but very addictive and dangerous medicines. It is the most well kept secret by the pharmaceutical companies and medical industry. That these medicines not just dont work, but make a patient life so worse that he wants to kill himself and many succeeded as you can read in the news so often nowadays. Or the medicines drive the patient into psychosis where he kills other and then kill himself. You read this news so often in USA where they blame on the guns. No, they should blame on the medicines. But nonone knows the truth of the matter except people like me who have ben through the horrendous experience when under these medicines and live to tell the tale.
When a patient is not well, he went to see a GP to be treated to get well but instead, he is given a benzo and AD, to take, that not only don't work but mess up his life so bad many wanted to commit su***de or kill others, then kill themselves. Many succeeded. This is the ultimate let down. To me, the pharmaceutical company and the doc that treated her should go to jail bcos not only the medicines and treatment didnt work, but drive her to kill her children.

I further commented as follows:
As doc failed to treat her, I would like to help her. PM me on FB New BenzoIsand and I will help her get off her medicines slowly and safely like I did in 2005 through tapering for 6 months using the Ashton Manual as a guide. Imagine you have to taper off slowly and safely these very addictive and dangerous medicines for 6 months to get well. Contrary to : You take medicines to get well but instead these medicines make your life hell, so bad that you want to commit su***des and many succeeded. That you have to get off these medicines to get well. What an irony?

PS: Dailymail couldn't face the truth or paid by Big Pharma for ads but removed my comments.

Dickason had admitted to killing the kids but pleaded not guilty to the charges arguing that she could not be held responsible because she was mentally unwell.
