Kova tekijä - Jordan B. Peterson

[newspeak]

The elder Peterson, 57, began taking the addictive medication to deal with stress from his wife’s battle with cancer and other health problems earlier this year, his daughter said.

He tried to quit cold-turkey over the summer after his wife, Tammy Roberts, “miraculously” recovered from complications with a kidney surgery, Mikhaila said.

But he went through “horrific” physical withdrawal that has left him looking “like a lost puppy,” she said.

“He decided to check himself into a place because he didn’t want to stress mom out, wanted to get off of this as quickly as possible, and honestly needs the medical help,” said Mikhaila, who has used her YouTube channel to promote her all-meat “Lion Diet.”

Peterson is getting weaned off clonazepam at the unidentified rehab facility with other drugs that will help abate the withdrawal, Mikhaila said.

Kannatti tosiaan alkaa kikkailemaan vieroituksen kanssa...

Tuontyyppisillä lääkkeillä tosiaan kerralla käytön lopettaminen voi pitkäaikaisen käytön jälkeen olla jopa hengenvaarallista - ja vähänkään pidempää käyttöä tuollaisilla lääkkeillä pitäisi välttää, jottei pääse kehittymään riippuvuutta:

Clonazepam - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clonazepam#Tolerance_and_withdrawal

One-third of individuals treated with benzodiazepines for longer than four weeks develop a dependence on the drug and experience a withdrawal syndrome upon dose reduction. High dosage and long-term use increase the risk and severity of dependence and withdrawal symptoms. Withdrawal seizures and psychosis can occur in severe cases of withdrawal, and anxiety and insomnia can occur in less severe cases of withdrawal. A gradual reduction in dosage reduces the severity of the benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome.

Abrupt or over-rapid withdrawal from clonazepam may result in the development of the benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome, causing psychosis characterised by dysphoric manifestations, irritability, aggressiveness, anxiety, and hallucinations.[76][77][78] Sudden withdrawal may also induce the potentially life-threatening condition, status epilepticus. Anti-epileptic drugs, benzodiazepines such as clonazepam in particular, should be reduced in dose slowly and gradually when discontinuing the drug to mitigate withdrawal effects.
