Many 1000s are sickened by psych drugs, but millions are saved? Is that a valid argument?

His bottom-line argument against my cautions about the dangers of benzo use and withdrawal was that those who get sick are an insignificant minority and therefore everything I said was fear-mongering. Period. The fact that many 1000s of people get sick in withdrawal compared to the millions who are "saved" means that those of us who are ill are simply to be written off as people with bad luck. Too bad, you're sick, the miracle that is benzodiazepine helps most people.
