    A coma to avoid benzo detox?

    I mean, I guess that’s one way to skip it.

    I’d personally just let the docs provide me stuff to deal with the symptoms along the way, it’s not like it’s going to be any quicker

      Yeah. That’s why western doctors wouldn’t do it

      The detox isn’t even that bad, and he ended up with brain damage.

      One of the most common side effects of brain damage is poor emotional regulation and responding to confusion with belligerence.

      At one point, this asshole was just a psychology professor with right-wing political beliefs that rarely came up. The change happened before the coma, but he wasn’t threatening to fight people on Twitter.

      The full story is much…much more crazy.

      Jordy In a coma.

      His Russian son in law, in 2 days, gets him a visa to Russia.

      In a coma, they transport jordy to Russia.

      In Russia, jordy undergoes a still unknown ‘treatment’.

      Jordy later awakens, confused, because Russian.

      Jordy joins the dark side.

      This is fact.

      (Will find the news article (from Canada’s very right wing paper))

      Edit: here it is from the horses own ass
