> My psych keeps warning me that it's addictive and I don't use it very often...it's come in handy to take the edge off my lexapro withdrawal and in the past when my anxiety skyrockets or I feel like I might go into a self-destructive impulsive phase. But how much is too much? How do you know if you are addicted? At this point in my treatment, I like to know it's there if I need it..like a security blanket.

Bassically, addiction involves a physical/mental craving for a substance, an escalation of dosage to retain the original "effects" of the drug, and a syndrome of withdrawal upon discontinualtion.
