> Don't mean to play the devil's advocate, but the worst mistake I ever made was to go on them in the first place. I didn't really need them and now I am addicted to them and have no choice.

> LinkadgeI understand what you are saying. I really needed it when I went on it. I had suicidal thoughts, the whole shebang. However, I was given the notion by my doctor it was a "temporary drug", or that was it for the most part. When I went on it I believe it was fairly new and doctors were "practicing" as they are alllowed to do of course and just were not aware of withdrawal symptoms, but I like you say feel I am addicted to it. I can't take the time off from work to force myself to go thru the withdrawals so I feel I am addicted but I can live a normal life with no side effects from it. Also too, depression seems to run rampant in my family so maybe like my doctor said "some people have to take it for life"....??
