  • "did it make you horny?" LOL, wtf man...wherever he heard that benzos do that... haha.

    that's just fucking ridiculous. That quote in the description... exactly how I feel. No one questions them so they take advantage, is what it comes down to... a shrink diagnosed me with generalized anxiety disorder at fucking 8 years old (that's already a tough one to diagnose in an adult who can fully express themselves!) I've pretty much not been able to function without antidepressants since. I'm 22.

  • @RocknCorruptrepublic You might be interested in looking at the videos of Joan Mathews Larson, PhD. She has been treating people with anxiety and depression (and drug and alcohol problems) WITHOUT drugs for 32 years. Look at the video where it shows the Dramatic Before and After picture of a woman who had been taking antidepressants for 13 years. It is shocking. Larry Hobbs

  • P.S. I take all kinds of shit and I have an addictive personality and I also suffer from panic disorder. I blame, ME, MYSELF and I, for my pill popping problems. I want to blame someone else, but that would just make me a Liar.

  • @jordanjcm You might want to checkout videos of Joan Mathews Larson. She has been helping people with drug and alcohol problems as well as anxiety and depression for 31 years (since 1980). All of these things have a biological cause and can be fixed with nutrients and diet, that is, WITHOUT drugs. Her website is JoanMathewsLarson[dot]com. You can also do a Google search for "site:joanmathewslarson[dot]co­m panic" to find all the pages where she talks about panic attacks. Larry Hobbs

The highest they make Xanax in is 2MG.....for her to be taking 16 MILLIGRAMS means she would have gotten them 8 TIMES A DAY!!!!!!!!!

  • I fuckin doubt..give me a bar and a half and a tall ice cold beer and a Kool and some S

  • @Insurgent999 maybe .25s but def not bars shed be dead and seizuring all day

  • @remsensor I've quit both and the benzo withdrawal is the worst thing you'll ever experience. It's truly a nightmare, you'll still feel the effects months after your last dose, depending on usage.

  • Hmm I talked to a guy that has experienced both heroin and xanax withdrawal. He told me that when comparing which is worse he said xanax was by far the worst. So it kind of makes you wonder why they give this shit out like candy but yet marijuana is still as illegal as can be. They also give out prescription amphetamines to kids everyday too :)
