From what I seen with Miltown & heard from one doctor too, it's VERY addictive, Seamus. A person may have the sort of make-up that tends to get addicted easier than others but not be aware of it from never having abused anything before. Put them on Miltown for longer than a very brief stint & they could get hooked too easily.
Stopping it is a nightmare - literally too. I saw it in one person & they went through hell coming off it & they'd not even been on it long or on more than a low dose. They had nightmares & horrid sleep for a loooong time afterwards. There's many meds far, far better than having to take Miltown.
