Yes benzos have their problems, but a major factor in this seems to have been how they were used.
One might have thought that after barbituates and miltown doctors might have prescribed them carefully, however from what I have seen many of those who have problems were given them innapropriately ( ie for depression)in far too high doses and for far too long, and perhaps most importantly with no warning of possible addiction problems and with absolutely no guidance about how to come off them.
Xanax has been a lifesaver for me but I researched it very carefully and use it carefully!
Having mentioned barbs, miltown and benzos is paxil the next one??Glenn
