I hear you... I'm the same way. I cannot tolerate antidepressants cause they give me agitation and I get very angry and neurotic. I noticed taking 2 to 3 mg of Ativan made me really depressed and want to drink which is not good for an alcoholic trying to stay sober. I'm on gabapentin for anxiety and it seems to help
Benzos can cause memory problems and tolerance quickly plus horrible withdrawals. From my studies they were only supposed to be prescribed on a temporary basis.
