If you would like to try a benzodiazepine, do some through research, identify why you think a particular med would help, how you think it would help, etc. and go to your doctor with this research.
Tell him this is what you want to do and why. Be logical and reasonable.
If he says no, make him give you good, concrete reasons (and let us know what they are).
Regarding your previous post, Effexor is indicated for both social and generalized anxiety. It can be a very good medicine for some. I was on it for about a year. Could be worth a try.
