Nobody also warns you about the information below: "The tranquilizers or benzodiazepines are prescribed for anxiety and sleep. But in the long run, the more you use it, more likely to have increased anxiety, depression and insomnia. "Several studies show that the use of these drugs is associated with an increase of approximately 50% in the risk of dementia. For dementia you can understand, for example, Alzheimer's disease." "The fact is that the more diagnostics, more people" classified "as" sick "will have to make use of medications. There is a growing tendency to "medicalize" normal patterns of behavior and mood."
