> Darkhorse, I was wondering why you were currently taking lorazepam. You see, I got the impression that you slightly prefered bromazepam.

Hello ed,Actually I like both...you see I like to use lorazepam when I'm very stressed and need to "forget" about what is bothering me..but I do not like to take it long- term..it is better than bromazepam in times when you want to forget about problems and get through work.
However,I prefer bromazepam when I'm not stressed,but want to make new changes in my life (so it is a kind of a different stress I guess) and want to be more " aware" of what I'm doing,and I prefer to use bromazepam when I need long- term benzo,because it is very easy to dicontinue it,and I reserve lorazepam for as needed and never long term ......
I hope this can make sense!! but you see I like both....+ I sometimes stop them and take Alprazolam (for a week or 2) when I feel that I have depressive syndromes,because it gives an antidepressant/euphoric protection, instead of going the antidepressant long and windinig road...
BTW, do you know that in Japan they have few TCA "AD" medications and that they treat depressives & anxieties with benzodiazepines,and never had this big fuzz and hassel of "withdrawal" issues !!
....they hardly prescribe TCA AD's...the first SSRI was introduced was Fluvoxamine in 2000!Regards,
Adam
