I'm glad your doctor emphasized the "subset"
portion of the benzo usage you describe.My doctor practically had the shove the pill
down my throat when raising the Rivotril.Some people belong to the subset of "drugphobia",
others to the type you describe.As for euphoria, i find it interesting that
a CNS depressant or "downer" as the slang term
goes, can produce such an effect. But i suppose
since benzos are so much like alcohol, perphaps
the first time does do that.If there is abuse, the pill bottle will tell,
and neither the pharmacist nor the doctor will
miss that. An attempt on the part of the patient
to abuse these, may indicate the first signs
of addiction. So, it would be something for the
doctor to watch for.Squiggles
