Benzos are evil. I have a relative whose young boss is showing some of the more wicked side effects of the worst of the benzos. She was having such a hard time with her “pill to be calm” (comments indicating addiction), difficulties with words, emotional and perception abnormalities, yellow skin and other problems, that I did a search and brought the printed results to her. Sure enough, a match. She thanked me profusely (conspicuously so).
Her family doctor (GP? DO?) has had her on those pills for around two years! She was also taking them while pregnant! ...certainly quacks like a...quack, that quack.
She said she would try to go off of those pills *very* gradually. Not much chance of that, of course. She agreed to get help with it, if she doesn’t manage it herself. Sad.
Weird stuff and obviously on a large scale across the country along with the opioids and all. Boot camps would have been a less expensive and less homicidal way to deal with many of the drug zombies. But those camps quickly went to pot decades ago, when instructors fresh out of Army combat specialties were politically pushed out in favor of emotional, vindictive, judicial civilians.
Understand but nothing that has been leaked yet to say Paddock had a pill addiction. Only filled two RX , one last year, one this June. Now with his money he could have bought hundreds of pills or any drug illegally.
