I'm almost positive kindling is a big factor, and you're probably right.

I think carbamazepine has been used in treating benzodiazepine withdrawal, but really the only safe way to deal with this is to use a benzo to taper.

For the life of me I don't know why they just don't use huge loading doses of clorazepate and then taper that gradually. It seems ideal for it (prodrug for nordazepam--even available in an extended-release formulation!)
