Respectfully, I understand you stance on benzo's and while I do not agree, you are certainly entitled to your opinion and it's the most common held idea.
I also have researched and found information that those with anxiety disorders are not likely to abuse. There are pitfalls, but not all of us fall into them.
I have found that for me and a number of others, benzo's are used approiately and while dependence may be an issue, addiction is not. The definition of addition having four characteristics or behaviors.
I use a benzo only and have had great success on subtherapeudic dosing. I have for a number of years.
Your opinion is the one most commonly held and there are good reasons for that. But, this finding is not true for everyone.
I have no desire to enter the Benzos wars. I'm battle worn. I believe the horror stories. I only wish to have MY story believed.
