>>> Ok first,if something works,unless it treats and CURES,then it is very unlikly it WONT BE addicting,it works thats why its addicting,I'd have to respectully disagree that it "works because it's addicting". It works beacause it works. Something can also not work and be addictive. There's not causal relation as I can see it.
>>>>Also the woman in the video,mentions she took it because she had minor anxiety.Ok benzos are a serious decision,and arent for that,aside from specific reasions,such as panic attacks etc,BENZOS should only be used when the anxiety being treated has made its way to plain disrupting severly ones life,making it hard for them to perform at work,possably even loosing a job...
I couldn't agree more. From her description she probably shouldn't have been on a benzo in the first place.
>> Main thing is to let the patient who is a candiate STILL understand regardless that it is likly they will be on this drug for the remainder of there life unless they later HAVE a alternative method to treating the anxiety,they wont however stop the drug and simply have the begining anxiety disappear.I second...well put.
