Yeah, there's a huge difference between using a little peppermint oil for a headache or a little lavender oil to calm you down and relax you and using that sort of thing as a replacement for actual medical treatment. One is fine, the other is very much not.

Re: From yesterday's general comments...

Actual question. If you needed to relax and considered taking a benzo but lavender oil worked just fine and now you don't need to relax anymore is that a "replacement" as you see things?

Re: From yesterday's general comments...

nayrt, but are you talking about the placebo effect or just "toughing it out"? I'm not sure what you're asking here.

Re: From yesterday's general comments...

[(Anonymous)]

I honestly don't think there's enough information here to say definitively. Another anon cited the placebo effect, and I do think that's a possibility. However, going straight from benzos to lavender oil is a pretty sizable jump. It sounds like something else was also changed (such as adding more movement to your daily routine) to allow for such a difference to have any effect.

Yeah it sounds like ayrt is being WAY over-medicated because benzos for anything other than severe, crippling anxiety? Y I K E S. I've been prescribed Xanax exactly twice in my life and I had to jump through hoops in order to get it and in both cases it was EXTREMELY strictly metered and monitored by the doctors who prescribed it.

Hippie parents anon here and yeah, I wouldn't take benzos if a nice cup of tea would do, or at all if I could avoid it, but also the only people I know who were ever prescribed them, it was for getting through withdrawal, or, in one case, a former classmate who had regular weeks-long migraines back before current meds were developed.

I had to fill a prescription for a relative once and I think robbing fort Knox would be easier. Any doctor who would just prescribe them like nbd for someone who responded to the equivalent of mild herbal tea might well be risking their license.
