This is because (okay, I'm rusty on this part) benzos create extra gaba channels in your brain that fire indiscriminately when you cease taking the drug. Why not take something else and not risk it?
People get hooked on taking it only a few times!

Because my brother is a drug addict, and no matter how good the pill, I could never get addicted, it makes me sick to think about it. As I've said, I've taken Valiums in the past, as well as others, and I really can't get addicted. Why? Because I have this lame image of my brother in my mind and it prevents some part of my brain for even wanting to take pills like that consecutively. 2 on the way there should do me good, and 2 on the way back
