> Yes I see you have posted it. I seriously wish you would babblemail me as told today by a pharmacist that my brain has been so damaged over the years there is no cure as I'm old almost 65. And since age 24 with first panic attack been on benzos and much more. I want help I will post a thread doubt anyone will respond. But don't know what else to do. Phillipa
First of all, I'm afraid I'm too new - I don't know what Babblemail is! Secondly, don't ever believe someone that tells you the human body is damaged beyond repair and that there is no cure! 65 is YOUNG! Thirdly, don't listen to a mere Pharmacist - where is the M.D. behind their name? They like to sound important and they do know about medications, but only a doctor can tell you there is no hope, and a Naturopath will probably never tell you that. Our capacity to grow new neurons and all that stuff is remarkable. Bah Humbug. Don't listen to a word of it.
What is it you are trying to cure? I think that if you have anxiety or depression there may not be a CURE for it yet, but treatment that makes it manageable. Why does the pharmacist (and yourself) think your brain is damaged? Do you have trouble remembering things? Or are you trying to get relief and nothing is working right now? That just means you haven't found what works yet, and you know how complicated these things are. How dare the pharmacist tell you how damaged your brain is. I know brilliant drug abusers from the 1960's that tried ALL KINDS of destructive stuff and they are fine today. So your brain isn't going to be ruined or "hopeless" just because you took some benzos! That pharmacist is WAY out of his/her league and did they run a brain scan on you? NO!
