Lorazepam addiction is an overwhelming struggle, but it’s not one you need to fight alone. At Delamere, we’re here to guide you on a path towards lasting recovery, offering you a brighter, healthier future beyond Lorazepam.
Lorazepam is a benzodiazepine, commonly used to treat conditions like anxiety or insomnia. While effective in the short-term, the potential for dependency and addiction makes it a problematic medication for long-term use. Individuals can often find themselves escalating their dosage to combat growing tolerance, leading to addiction.
If you or someone you love is grappling with Lorazepam addiction, acknowledging the problem is the first step towards healing. It’s not easy – addiction can make you feel isolated, scared, and uncertain about the future. But remember, you don’t have to face this challenge alone.
Get in touch with our team today to find out more about how we can help you beat your addiction for good at Delamere – and even have fun in the process!
Delamere is more than a residential rehab centre. We’re a community committed to your healing, growth, and transformation.
Our treatment model is crafted around you, focused on understanding the root causes of your addiction and helping you navigate your unique recovery journey.
Our purpose-built facility, nestled in the peaceful Delamere Forest, is designed with comfort and tranquillity at its heart. Far from the clinical sterility of traditional rehabs, our homely environment offers a safe and supportive space for recovery.
The journey to recovery begins with recognising the signs of addiction.
Symptoms of Lorazepam dependency can vary between individuals, but common signs include:
A growing tolerance to Lorazepam, leading to increased dosage
Continuous use of the drug despite negative impacts
Concealing or downplaying usage
Prioritising Lorazepam over responsibilities and relationships
Unexplained health issues or changes in physical appearance
Emotional instability or cognitive impairment
Secretive behaviours, such as hiding medication
The negative effect of addiction is not limited to your physical health – it can seep into every aspect of your life, causing financial problems, strained relationships, and even legal troubles.
The psychological impact can be equally profound, leading to symptoms such as memory issues, anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts.
Dr Catherine Carney, Psychiatrist at Delamere
Choosing to get treatment for your addiction is a courageous decision – a promise to yourself to reclaim your life from Lorazepam.
We know that the road to recovery is filled with challenges. Fear of withdrawal, anxiety about the future, and concerns about judgement may weigh heavily on your mind. But, at Delamere, we’re with you at every step, providing constant support, care, and reassurance.
Just imagine the possibilities that rehab brings. The joy of regaining physical and mental health, the freedom from the shackles of Lorazepam, the satisfaction of mending relationships, and the excitement of crafting a fulfilling future.
It’s not just about ending your addiction. It’s about writing a new, positive chapter in your life.
At Delamere, we go beyond merely treating your symptoms. We strive to understand the root causes of your addiction and tailor a recovery path that’s unique to you.
When you arrive, you’ll be greeted by a team of compassionate experts, ready to undertake a comprehensive assessment of your physical and mental wellbeing. This thorough evaluation forms the basis of your personalised recovery programme.
The first phase of your recovery involves a medically supervised detox to ensure a safe and comfortable transition away from Lorazepam. Our dedicated team will be by your side around the clock, providing support and administering medication as needed.
As you move into the second phase of your journey, our focus shifts to therapeutic healing. You’ll work alongside an experienced therapist who will curate a personalised blend of counselling sessions and group therapy. The goal is not just to treat, but also to understand the roots of your addiction and foster a long-lasting recovery.

At Delamere, we view your recovery as a journey of transformation, encapsulated in our three-stage process: Stop. Start. Grow.
The ‘Stop’ stage, typically lasting a week, focuses on halting your Lorazepam use and stabilising your physical health.
The ‘Start’ stage, which follows, aims to reveal and understand the root cause of your addiction and give you the psychological support you need to be the person you want to be.
Finally, the ‘Grow’ stage helps you embrace your life outside of Delamere, free from Lorazepam.
