To me stability is being able to feel and express feeling apropos to the situation.

Personally I think benzos make everything worse

My anxiety is here high
Then I take a benzo
Anxiety drops down low
The pill wears off
Anxiety goes up higher that it was
Take a pill
Anxiety goes down but not as much as it first did
Pill wears off
Anxiety goes up higher than before
Take pill
Anxiety drops but even less than the last pill
Pill wears off"..............ect

Eventually the pill drops anxiety to a higher level than I started with and I'm anxious all the time. I found a doc who agreed with me and switched me to propranolol. My emotional liability is much more stable now and in my control not at the mercy of a pill.
