Benzodiazpeines (taken without dopamine blockers) are extremely safe, though they may be abused, misused, and ultimately debiliating to cognition and motivation in some.
But there are phsycially very very safe.
See my site at the end for link on
"antipsychotic toxicities"also see "patient rights" - each of these sites is more extensive than they look - but yes pateitns do have rights and unfortunately pschatrists - having all the rules in their favor (total control over what is in records) - and no witness to any session - as well as oftentimes dealing with emotionally burdened or more easily manipulated than average patients - it is no surprise they damage (I would guess 1000's) per year with antipsychotic induced TD without warning and get off scott free.
A large percentage of those taking a/p's will get TD or worse.
Anyhow see my site....
