Quintal thanks for your observations on benzos. I was very reluctant to admit that the Xanax I'd been taking for years (and benzos in general for 42 years) wasn't working anymore. But not so long ago I surprised myself by saying to the Dr that "I believe they work, that's the point". My general anxiety isn't abated but as I haven't had a panic attack for years I believe it's because Xanax makes them impossible. But maybe I've just grown out panic attacks.
The truth can never hurt you, they say. Perhaps it can if you're undermining a robust placebo response
