    It is the same as addiction. Withdrawal takes up to two years and comes with psychosis, loss of reality and epileptic attacks. I worked 15 years in a psychiatry. This is simply a aspect of the substance... Beyond that, off course, I understand and respect the original poster and therefore tried...

    Pharmacies Rx Refill

    As I understand it you wanted to get the medication illegally since your prescription is from country other then Argentina (the US?). If you have a valid argentine prescription you should be able to easily get it in any pharmacy, but medication which is highly addictive (Diazepam - a...

    Why Does Everyone Here Seem To Hate Buenos Aires So Much?

    Yesl, that was me. I never imagined getting called an A55hole because I like Pizza and Ice cream here better than in Italy.

    Well, from the three pizzerias I have within two blocks I consider tow of them better than the one from Milano. Forgive me that I do not remember the exact names. The only thing missing sometimes is variety.

    Farewell Buenos Aires

    As said, last Pizza was in Milano in a Restaurant besides the Duomo. Before that I had been on my usual trip from Rome to Venecia.

    Farewell Buenos Aires

    Mmm...haven`t thought to get so many strong reactions on that. Well. It is my experience. Last italian Pizza I had was two month ago in Milano, right in front of the Duomo.

    Moving To Argentina

    You would go nowhere with 1400 US and the quality of life ATM is lousy, including Job opportunities. You may consider other destinations which are not so messed up.
