[QUOTE="Sides, post: 154481, member: 31749"] I read your post and I do appreciate your well-intended concern, thank you. Dependency has certainly taken hold, as I have been taking Valium every night since 2015 (with a doctor's prescription, and under a doctor's care.) This does indeed worry me. Yet for those of us with serious anxiety and OCD problems, there comes a time when approaches like meditation and yoga are just not going to cut it. And I used to be a competitive bodybuilder and I lift weights and get other exercise too much, if anything, so I am well-covered on that aspect. Valium is one of the world's most prescribed medicines, and there are millions of people taking it safely, without problems. Like any medicine, there is an appropriate use, and then there is abuse. But it, or something like it, is a necessity for those of us who need it. In a perfect world, none of us would need such things. But real life is a matter of dealing with the issues and problems you have, and trying to make the best choices you can in dealing with them. There are always better and worse choices, so we all try to choose the best choices that we can, and try to make things turn out for the best. [/QUOTE]
