Benzos and increased energy ???

2 Replies

Crazy question, but does anyone feel like when they take a benzo, they have motivation and energy? My mindset is totally different when I take the benzo. I know they are for anxiety, so could it be when the anxiety is decreased, the motivation is increased? Sounds silly and maybe it is purely psychological. Thanks.

You sound very wise and described it all perfectly! I am 63 with a life limiting auto immune disease so dependency is not an issue as far as I am concerned...quality of life versus quantity. Thank you!
