People on this board claim barbs are extinct for anxiety, but that can't be true if benzos only work 70% of the time. That must mean the normal, rational doctors (the ones not willing to give a simple anxiety patient an antipsychotic just because they heard it was "novel" or "second-generation" from a sales rep) would give barbs 30% of the time, in cases of benzo non-responders.
Of course, many of the so-called "treatment resistant" PATIENTS are actually ones who are treatable with benzos. It's their DOCTORS who are simply resistant to treating them.
