Idk, what does broad empathy really get you? What's the advantage? Not saying it's right or wrong, but where's the gain?

this post is perfect and you don't realize it


Yes, I do of you're talking about the fact that I'm on SSI. I never claimed I was entitled to it though. I'm just taking what I'm given. If I were suddenly cut off, I'd have no room to complain and I've always thought that way.

What does empathy for others get me?

Bruh


Why else would you have a ton of empathy for anyone besides your friends/family?

You know how you get mad when people are dicks to you?


Not having empathy=/= going out of your way to be a dick. One is just apathy, not directed at anyone in particular. The other is calculated aggression directed at one person.

It ties in with emotional intelligence which ties in with success (usually for many people, not just yourself). Good leaders can empathize with their followers. People with empathy can carry a lot of friends.


But that would imply everyone else being successful makes you successful, which isn't inherently true. Like, if you're trying to get into the entertainment industry, for example, the less people that are successful means more chance that you'll be successful based on less competition.

So don't suddenly withdraw. Taper like an intelligent human being. The Ashton Protocol should be used in all cases if a patient wishes to discontinue the use of benzos.

That's a huge drawback, imo.


You really shouldn't quit any psychiatric medication cold turkey tbh. That's just bad medicine.

Sure, but the fact that you could die is a pretty big risk. Addictive + death from withdrawal = damn risky

At least, I think so.

Not saying they don't have their place, but I've seen it prescribed to many addicts for getting over other addictions. I'm sure you can guess what happened with their benzos. Their place should be very limited, I think.


You don't run any risk of dying with a proper taper....that's only a factor if you suddenly stop taking it altogether. Idk who told you otherwise, but it isn't true.

Never claimed otherwise.
The fact that it's even a risk is a huge negative.


Well why would you take that risk by suddenly stopping? Cold Turkey isn't advised for any psychiatric medication by doctors for a reason.

yeah for anxiety klonopin was a godsend. i was on an ssri as well but ended up dumping it later and sticking with klonopin. the brain zaps are definitely next level weirdness.

glad i dont have to take either anymore.


Clonazepam (Klonopin) is a benzodiazepine and vastly more addictive and dangerous than any SSRI. Just FYI.

I feel like this is a myth purported by doctors. Where they underplay the dangers of ssris and restrict access to drugs that actually work, like benzos

Hahahah.

No.


Benzos aren't nearly as bad as people make them out to be.


Yes they are. They're actually worse.


Not at all. They are very effective, and anxiety needs to be taken as a case by case basis. Can they lose effectiveness in some patients over time? Sure. Is that the case with everyone? No.

I take 17 mg of Valium every day with zero side effects besides little tiredness. Idk, never had any problems with Benzos besides Ativan because of it's short half-life. No memory, mood or sexual problems. Of course if you don't take it, you get withdrawal, but that's never been an issue because why would I not remember to take it? It's part of my daily routine.

The only times I've had problems were with idiot doctors who thought it was ok to cut me off cold Turkey with no taper.

Luckily my current doctor isn't like that and is supporting my decision to go down to 10 mg per day with a 1 mg decrease per month.

im convinced benzos saved my life because i was borderline agoraphobic and they allowed me to face every day situations again without feeling crushing anxiety and panic. basically my brain relearned how to act in various situations and i kept pushing myself into facing things until i felt they had done their job and stepped off of them.

ive heard they dont work at all for some people so I was lucky to find something that worked. i suspected that the long half life of klonopin was a good thing because it wasnt just a quick jolt of relief like other benzos.


Eh, a lot of people, including doctors, will tell you they're evil because they're addicting, but I'll take addictive over crippling anxiety any day. It's only a problem if you get a bad doctor that won't do a proper taper for whatever reason. Currently on 17 mg of Valium per day (tapering back to 10) and it's a godsend. Been on it 8 years now, no noticeable side effects besides a tiny bit of tiredness in the morning.

Depending on your political beliefs, he's either pure as the windswept snow or the rapiest person on Earth.

Based on the actual evidence presented, there's nowhere near enough information to actually make an informed decision either way. But that's not politically expedient for either side.

There's more than enough evidence to disqualify him. Not convict, but disqualify.
