That's why I'd rather take benzo's than AD's or AP's any day. If benzo's keep my anxiety under control I now know that I personally don't need AD's anymore and I'm living a much, much happier and productive life. In combination with modafinil and CPAP for OSA and therapy for anxiety I'm now tapering my dose of benzo's down.
