Thanks for your comment. I was appalled that the article didn't mention the implications of being prescribed benzodiazepines (both culturally, behaviorally, and physically). I wish in America these consequences were taken more seriously AND that people were more educated about it, but it almost seems like a long-running joke from the 50s -- "Oh, just take a valium! You'll be fine!" and etc. I really wonder how long until that is not socially acceptable...
