I find the moderation here frustrating at times when people will down vote but not explain why.

There may be a very go reason to not allow anxiety medication, I don't know enough about it myself.

You’re getting downvoted because your comment is dangerously misinformed. Air traffic controllers aren’t allowed to take those anxiety medications (benzos, etc) because they impair your performance and judgment, even if you feel fine while taking them.

Don’t confuse the way a drug makes you feel with the objective impairment of a drug.

The comment I replied to is not one that I wrote.

I appreciate you providing reasoning. I think the best way to deal with misinformation is good information and up/down votes are sometimes a good signal, sometimes it is an agree or disagree button.
