What's GAD?

Probably Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Ah that makes sense.

(Also the last few years of my downward spiral till I hit bottom ) Meds have changed my life the last six months.

Yeah, meds have helped, in my case. At least benzos, but I try not to use them since they were explicitly prescribed as a last resort. I gotta book an appointment at a second doctor one of these days... It wasn't really working out with my previous doctor.

What are "benzos"? At first I thought that was Bezos.

Benzodiazepines. Class of drugs used for sleep, anxiety and even anesthesia. Wikipedia: benzodiazepine
