i just dont understand most of the mental health treatment practices...
maybe its because im crazy
How would you know what "class" each person is though? Either I'm just not following you, or that sounds like it would make things way complicated.

The substance abuse label is thrown around so carelessly. There are a lot more criteria than just looking for a quick fix, but I can see how it could get to that quickly. I'm a little worried about myself, I really like how well benzos work on my anxiety. I like it maybe a little too much. But I've been able to just use them when I'm anxious, so maybe I won't have a problem? Meh, I'm leaving out important points that look more like abuse, or future abuse.
