I was assigned a PS in the province, and it looks like it's in a smaller city....

so how what is the general feel of the area? I remember driving down south once and was amazed by the bright green of the trees and foliage. More rural and less rushed.

But that's about all I know of the area. Any info would be appreciated!

Haha, small town Jeollabukdo eh? I thought that entire area had been
fenced off, paved over and converted into holding areas for medical
research subjects.

Anyway, this is what you need to read:

Benzodiazepines
Profile

Benzodiazepines are among the most commonly prescribed depressant medications in the United States today. More than 15 different types of benzodiazepine medications exist to treat a wide array of both psychological and physical maladies based on dosage and implications.1 To be characterized as such, each benzodiazepine displays one or more of the following drug actions: anxiety relief, hypnotic, muscle relaxant, anti-convulsant, or an amnesiatic (mild memory-loss inducer). Due to their sedative properties, benzodiazepines have a high potential for abuse, especially when used with other depressants such as alcohol or opiates.2 Benzodiazepines are classified as Schedule IV in the Controlled Substances Act.

Commonly prescribed benzodiazepines include Xanax� (alprazolam), Librium� (chlordiazepoxide), Valium� (diazepam), and Ativan� (lorazepam).3 Another benzodiazepine that has been the focus of a great deal of media attention is flunitrazepam, trade name Rohypnol�, which is known widely as "the date-rape drug" due to its involvement in many sexual assault cases in recent years.

OK, someone has a sense of humor, or so they think..... remember, "Anger is depression turned outward.... or is depression anger turned inward?"... Wink

Now, onto anyone who with any constructive thoughts?

The really funny thing is, is that you think I'm trying to be funny.
