There is no reason to be afraid of benzos- I'm asssuming you're concerned about dependency? Accordding to my pdoc, the vast majority of his patientss on benzos are so med phobic that they eventually ask to taper down (and once the proper dose is found and the panic ceases, then you never need to increase because they don't lose their anxiety reducing properties). I really blame docs that don't understand the action of benzos for unnecessarily frightening their patients- like I said I have been on them for years and have never increased my dose. Take care, judy
