This is kind of off topic, but what exactly is the difference between "habit forming" and the fact that just about every SSRI is actually addictive? Nobody's ever mentioned anything about SSRI's being "habit forming" yet they are usually pretty painful to start up on and the withdrawal is worse than coming off of most street drugs. "Habit forming" is only applied to benzos for some reason, and I find benzos to be one of the best medications out there for anxiety and panic attacks and that usually doesn't have any start up side effects and the withdrawal is actually quite a bit easier, than say, Effexor.
