I'm with you, tabitha. As a long-term (11 yrs)and active member of AA, I fall into the category of those who believe that psych meds, properly used (including benzos) are appropriate. As some say -- "I didn't get sober to be miserable."
One of the guiding principles of AA is "To thine own self be true." Intention has a lot to do with it. Only if you are being truly honest with yourself can you distinguish whether you're using these meds appropriately or not.
