A member asked:
Why is a benzo better alternative for anxiety than a couple of drinks, assuming you are not an addict and don't overdo either?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mind Body Medicine: Please do what your doctor says but rather than a benzo or alcohol consider some mind body medicine such as biofeedback or clinical hypnosis (www.asch.net for licensed referrals). See www.relaxationresponse.org for son me self-help. Peace and good health.
