In reply to site giving view of the possible prob with benzos, posted by pathetic_n_useless on January 23, 2002, at 19:33:09
Hello,
Sure benzos can cause problems. Most of the articles cited at that web page were written in the 1980's. Diazepam and Xanax are not nearly prescribed at the levels they were 15-20 years ago. I think that benzos were used on practically everyone that walked in a pdocs office 15-20 years ago, but times have changed. Pdocs are VERY reluctant to prescribe that class of drugs anymore because of the abuse potential.
I use Klonipin, and it is the only drug that I've had that has helped my cyclothymia. To demonize a whole class of drugs without citing its benefits is very IRRESPONSIBLE.
