In all honesty, my family has a history of depression and anxiety. My Grandmother, now nearly 90, was diagnosed with "neurosis" back in the 50s. She's been taking Miltown since then and swears by it. She hasn't developed tolerance and still takes only 400mg I think three times daily, maybe two. She also takes seconal for insomnia -- but has complained to me that she can't get tuinal anymore (which she preferred over seconal). By the way, her doctor is 88 and is not accepting new patients. Perhaps that is why she has never been prescribed newer meds--but why experiment with new meds when the old ones are working just fine?
