> Many psychiatrists say:
>
> benzodiazepines will destroy your brain (Apart from not fully understood pharmacology). How would you as experienced longterm users of benzodiazepines rate this statement? (I have not big experiences but my grandmother (90 years) takes since 30 years a benzodiazepine, (oxazepam) she has the best memory you can imagine and does not seem to be tolerant)

> Is there somebody knowledgable who could rate this state of some psychiatrists pharmacologically?Benzo's won't destroy your brain. Change the chemistry, yeah - but they don't cause cell death.
