Exactly! I was prescribed Ativan for anxiety years ago and never take more than 1 mg per day. My mother and grandmother had terrible anxiety, so I believe its somewhat hereditary. Then was given Ambien for severe insomnia (caused by anxiety) which I have had since I was young. Both meds worked to treat those conditions. So why, if you have a condition that there is a medicine for that works, do they then say "You should take that anymore ITS BAD."????? I don't know of any other conditions with a medicine to treat it where they say that. And believe me, there are a lot of drugs for some conditions that ARE BAD.
