It started in the distant mists of time with opium, canibis and alcohol, moved onto bromides in the 1840's, expanded with chloral, sulphonyl and paralderhyde in the late 18th centuary, and realy took hold when the barbiturates were discivered in the early 20th centuary..... then in the 1950's it exploded, amphetamines, Dexamyl, Thorazine, Tofranil, Nardil,Milotwn and in 1960, Librium.
