> Weight gain is depressing. I'd rather be somewhat depressed than fat. My biggest problem is anxiety. I don't know why pdocs shy away from benzos. No wt gain on them. And the AD's cause anxiety for me. Love Phillipa

Somewhat fat is depressing. No doubt. But I have to take the AD's. I have tried not to and that is way more awful than gaining a few lbs.
My anxiety will lead me to depression. I am lucky I have a pdoc who is not a benzophobe and gives me klonopin. She gets the connection. It is a whole 'nother story for people with real anxiety disorders than the type of people the benzophobes are afraid to prescribe to. They don't get it.
