Book Description
Benzodiazepines, a class of tranquilizers and sleeping pills (including Valium, Xanax, and Ambien) that are often mindlessly and irresponsibly prescribed by doctors who have been sold on their merits by crooked drug companies, do more than enslave your body: ultimately, they can crush your soul. This book is not only a first hand, partial insider account, written as the memoir of a personal journey; it is published in the public interest, as a testimony, in the off chance that it might increase public awareness of the dangers of Benzodiazepine dependency, and to influence public policy and law in regard to Benzodiazepines and similar drugs.Though an occasional Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston overdose tragedy may focus attention on this subject for a few days, negligent doctors around the world continue to create dependent patients; instead of healing you, a doctor may have enslaved you to a drug such as a Benzodiazepine, which can be surprisingly difficult to free yourself from.And what if your doctor, who addicted you to a chemical without a conscience, was paid and bribed by drug companies to do it? What if he/she prescribed it without giving you all the necessary cautionary warnings, and if as a result you are hooked for life? What ethical questions does this raise? And what about drug companies that market questionable and sometimes banned drugs in corrupt Third World countries, dumping them on the population like they do their cigarettes?This book is both a call for justice on behalf of millions, as well as a personal, literary expression--by an author of 12 books who has been published in ten countries. It is NOT a how-to book, and is not meant to be a substitute for your own research and professional advice (even though, as history shows, "professionals" have often created this and other problems in the first place).
