You must have completely misunderstood my curiousity... it is not aimed against benzos AT ALL. I am curious about the nature of clonazepam-- why all the other benzos build tolerance, but clonazepam does not. However, its withdrawal, at even a low constant (15yr. approx.) dose is one of the worst.
So, it's basically an academic question, not a stance against benzodiazepines, which I personally think are necessary for states of anxiety, rage, panic, etc.
