well, 'refractory-depression's' my middle name. i think it related to 10 year's of benzos. i ran out, but before full withdrawal hit (er deal), a relative handed me some 'pain' pill--withdrawal stopped. i'd never heard of anything that could stop long-term benzo withdrawal, save perhaps neuroleptics, i can't use them, fortunately?, and i know opiate withdrawal is hell. but benzos also are. so i went looking and found this board. more money in risperdal/zyprexa than old cheap opiates--i doubt that would interest money-driven drug co. studies. a university? depends. it's certainly a 'lessor of evils' deal. best wishes
