Just out of curiosity. Have you ever been just sitting there with your life going just great only to have an acute panic attack? In my twenties that's what happened to me Enter valium. My sister, her daughter, my son, grandson, granddaughter,father, mother all had the same problem. We were all told that we had a chemical imbalance with GABA, and that we would need a benzo because it targets GABA for life. Now if you hate pills and don't get high or any pleasure out of taking them, how can you say they are addictive? Each time any of us has tried to totally eliminate them in a few days the panic comes rushing back. My Son lost his eyesight in Desert Strom, and has graduated Suma Cum Laude in Social Work, one of the only fields the Army would pay for for him to go into as he can still practice if he loses the slight ability to see out of one portion of his right eye. If it wasn't for a benzo he could have never gone to school and lead the productive life he is. Just another opinion. Fondly, Phillipa
