Benzo withdrawal is by all accounts hell on Earth, our own LFS went through it. The "tolerance withdrawal" phenomenon, where people become tolerant to the drug and then start experiencing withdrawal symptoms even without decreasing dose, is uncommon and may not be medically recognised (not sure) but there are a lot of anecdotal reports.
That said, I don't think this guy's decision to post this email is down to the benzo issues, I think he has a lot of other issues. I'd also be pretty skeptical that he never took more than the recommended dose and that he had no idea when he was taking the drug that it was a bad idea to be on it long term. I'd say he just wants to blame other people.
