Pretty much all benzos can be addicting... mostly you gotta monitor yourself as you are taking it. and be honest with your pdoc. if you notice yourself taking to many, let him know. but hopefully you can avoid getting to that point by being mindful of this drug, and only taking it when you really need it. your doc (hopefully) wouldn't prescribe you something in which he felt would be detrimental, rather than beneficial. so i'm thinking he felt you could handle it... just please be mindful of how often you are taking it. good luck!
