How come doctors don't prescribe benzo's for depression? They seem to
work excellently well. I was in a severe depression, and I snapped
right out of it, once my doc prescribed some for me, ativan, three one
milligram tabs a day, at two hundred lbs. body weight. I could
probably do better with at least four, but any way, they work.

Are there any natural substances, plants, fruits, veggies, herbs, that
have traces of benzo molecules in them? There ought to be something,
so that you could make something like a tea to boost the naturally
occuring benzo molecules in your body, and I'm assuming they do
naturally occur in your body, just as do opiates. I wouldn't be
surprised if we find even trace amounts of coca molecules naturally
occuring in the body, as well. Thanks for reading.

Benzodiazepines do not have an antidepressant effect for most people. They
usually calm anxiety, can be sedating, and can even cause depression. Your
reaction is unusual.

I don't know of any foods that contain benzodiazepines. However, the
benzodiazepines enhance GABA activity, which is an effect that can be
produced by taurine, as taurine also activates GABA receptors. This makes
sense, since taurine, like benzodiazepines, has a calming effect. So you
might find some benefits from taurine, given your response to Ativan.

Do apples or bananas have taurine??

Well, doesn't it often happen that anxiety and depression are present at the
same time and it's even hard to seperate which feelings belong to what
condition? I mean when your depressed you're often also anxious and feel
that there is no hope and worry what the future will be like etc. In those
situations, wouldn't benzos be helpful? Also, from what I've read, benzos
are often prescribed as augmentation to anti-depressants in these
situations.

Taurine is derived from bull semen.
