Yes, the research I've read actually angers me. I dislike the idea of supressing memories that may or may not lead to PTSD. I'm not interested in that aspect of the drug, especially since the window of time in which a doctor would have had to prescribe this medication for me was, oh, twenty years ago. It's far too late for the intended use of the drug in those experiments to have its desired effect on me.

I'm trying to find information about how this drug has been used for already-existing anxiety disorders - to see if others have experienced relief from physiological symptoms.

Indeed, the idea of being a drugs for a lifetime is extremely unappealing to me. I have recently started attending a therapy group which consists of learning meditation methods that can, over time, become just as effective as medication. I hope that, in time, I will reach that point. It is a process, though, as we all know. I've also learned incredibly valuable skills through taking over a year of DBT workshops - that information was like gold.
