My mind gets on overdrive at times when problems arise and trying to get it off track is a hopeless cause, at times.
Sorry Groucho
I wasn't trying to suggest that Benzo's aren't useful for anxiety - obviously they do help many people who have anxiety symptoms. However canagirl did go to the ER for pain symptoms and they clearly dismissed that medical need.
