I actually tapered longer than I was on Benzos to begin with! However, with much encouragement, I continued down the path of healing toward a single, focused goal…to be free of the Benzo beast. So know that it's possible to begin healing. - Janet S., (MINNESOTA) Valium More...
I'm sitting here right now only 6 months later and I'm doing a lot better mentally. My mind is so much more clear now. I am getting myself back. I am excited about the future. I can't thank POR enough and the best thing is knowing there are people out there like them. - Johnny D., (MICHIGAN) Remeron, Klonopin, Suboxone More...
Our Approach
Imagine a group where each person survived tremendous adversity: Spinal Injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Cancer, Post Partum Depression, Overwhelming Loss, Betrayal, Alcoholism and Addiction.
Now imagine each individual returning to a state of health, then being compelled to turn back and help another. That is the spirit behind the team of Point of Return, a non-profit organization.
The common thread that wove each of our lives is the overuse of prescription medications. The majority of our team have taken benzodiazepines, sleeping pills, antidepressants and painkillers, and have made the journey back to health. We are devoted to the welfare of others and firmly believe that innocent addiction has become a pervasive global issue that has affected us all.
Educate. Assist. Inspire. Recover.
Point of Return is dedicated to helping people regain their lives and are committed to making global change one person, one community, one country at a time.
Our philosophy,
“Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity”.
quote by Horace Mann
