.....I realized that benzos do not decrease anxiety over time when u go off them. Its the worst medication ever invented. Its only good if u really really need something when in a bad situation. My anxiety was through the roof when I went off them. Hope everything works out for you bro and manage to get your gf back.
Agreed! I mean, Sus., you and I have conversations about this. IMO
no drug should be use (barring obviously exceptional circumstances and the like of course) to treat mental illness! For short term use I can see the benefits but mental illness shouldn't be treated with pharmacotherapies.
^ i don't think drug use and relationship problems are synonymous.....
I agree, somewhat. I don't think one can (or has) draw any definite, exact causation between the two. If I'm sure if you spoke to
anyone, everyone has a story! So although you can't say taking drugs will cause relationship problems. I've put money on a very high probability! When it comes down to - and doesn't matter how or how much one rationalises it to ourselves (and as humans we're
extremely good in doing so!) - drugs are poisons, especially in the quantities used in recreation, and if you put a poison in your body there will be (eventually) adverse reactions!
Is this the who would like some benzos thread or did I come to the wrong place?
Well firstly, if it is, do a brother a solid!
From a personal, recreational stand-point, I love benzos! One of my favourite drugs! But it is (and growing) one of most widely abused drugs and the side effects can be devastating. In fact, I know a doctor who's spear-heading a move to remove all benzos from the shelves / move benzos them to a higher schedule. Tbh I don't like her chances and really don't agree, but my point is even in the medical profession there's becoming a higher awareness of benzos.
