> Question are you saying old is not good? As it seems the maoi's are being used frequently and they are older than valium. Also chloral hydrate from the l800's which i was on for years and discontinued easily. So I don't understand why old is not as good as new. Older meds have a safer track history as they haven't been pulled like vioxx for example. So I don't feel older is a factor in any med. Think of aspirin too. Phillipa ps do you have that link on klonopin? Would love to read it. Thanks
Absolutly not,im actualy vice versa.I believe that if all the meds were as consisent as the class of benzos were made to be so worried about worked as well wed be in a better place.
The only point i was referring to was how you said it was weird that docs prescribe klonopin,this so because first its just common that newer meds which klonopin would have been and is to valium are usualy used,second klonopin does indeed have a unique profile that helps many with gad.
Valium as well as most benzos have proved there value through test of time,i actualy believe thats a good thing.
I just believe they although similiar they all have there place,and i am a man of my word,its late i dont have the link around,but i will post for you the information describing how klonopin showed different to the common benzos by having a wider ranger of effect.But again i just feel because u have success with valium and dident with klonopin it seems u pus that off strongly when that isnt the case.
Tons of people rely on klonopin,i personaly do.
Bottom line to me is to find the one that helps,if it is done,then there is no debate or the like,that is the objective,to feel better,i just try not to down play other meds ive failed on and strongly advocate mine now because i know it varies,this is why youll hardly ever see me post on ssris,because i know i am partial and will just be a constant negative presence.I enjoyed both your posts,btw.
