The Benzo experience is different for everyone. They have the potentional to be abused by some.
The have gotten to the "street" status making it harderon those of us that need some help many Dr's are hesitant to prescribe them. Some won't at all. My first experience with them was a nightmare. I had debilitating anxiety and panic attacks My Dr gave me Klonopin I thought He was God I was better so for 2 years I took them several Mg's a day.
I became very depressed he told me too cut back but I was so afraid of the anxiety I couldn't. I was hospitalized.labeled and addict and ripped off in three days. The withdrawl was a nightmare I thought I'd die. and the symptoms went well into a year or so. It wasn't until I started prozac that I was able to over come what had happend too me.
so it can be a good thing or a bad thing my case was handled wrong. I use them today but with great respect for these drugs. In your case that's not addiction and 1mg is nothing.Rainee
