John

I know you have your views and syringachalet has her own views on this topic. I happen to aree with things that both of you have said and I also disagree with some of the views that both of you hold.

I myself an not anti-benzo as they help my own anxiety problems immensely so I will continue to take them while they are helping me. I also agree that meds can sometimes be the only answer to whatever mental problems someone is dealing with. But I also agree with Syrinchalet that meds are part of the whole tool box available to assist someone with their problems.

However I feel compelled to refer you to a post recently made by Simcha in this same thread.

> What in the world are you talking about? I never claimed to be addicted or abusing cocaine or heroin in any way, shape, or form. I merely said I experimented with cocaine on a few occasions, yet I did not become addicted. End of story. I am however now addicted to Clonazepam. Why don't you think before you post such nonsense!

I know that Dr. Bob has not warned you about being more civil here on Psychobabble. As a poster I would like you to try to be more civil. Please try not to put down other people when posting. I find it offensive and it reduces my sense of safety on this board.
You are welcome to your opinion about Clonazepam. Please respect other posters when expressing your opinions about Clonozepam.
Very Truly Yours,
Simcha"

In a more recent post you wrote the following

>"Meds are a simply tools to help you help
yourself. No different than therapy, reading
self-help books, or hyponosis..."

>Sorry to disagree, but I don't know what profession you are in exactly, but I can guess you have never had a panic attack or a major depressive episode by your statements.

John you are making assumptions about other posters. Syringachalet is genuinely trying to be helpful with her opinions. I wish to repeat Simcha’s words. I believe you could have made your point without becoming so personal or making assumptions about Syrinchachalet’s own medical past. Can you please try to be a bit more civil in your posts. Just like Simcha I find such assumptions offensive even though they are not directed at me personally and also reduces the sense of safety that I feel on this board.

It saddens me that in her last post Syringachalet felt compelled to advise that she would no longer be contributing to this topic because I truly value her views just like I value the views of other posters on this board.

Kind regards
bluedog
