There are possible dangers if someone would just stop taking them abruptly and go into sudden withdrawal, there is a high risk of seizures associated with doing so and there have been cases where it has been life threatening.

I'll refer you to the Benzodiazepine details article to learn more about the dangers.

Generally stopping medications in this class after prolonged use is generally done via a very slow tapering process.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Yes you can die when coming off a Benzo. We are warned about many things when taking this medicine but not adequately warned about the serious health risks associated with withdrawal. Many Doctors just don't know how dangerous this stuff can be on the way out?
