a. Benzodiazepines

b. Heroin

c. Mescaline

d. Amphetamines

Answer:Lisa is most likely to be addicted to Benzodiazepines. Correct option is A.

Explanation:

Lisa was not retired but was fired. Meaning she lost her job. This alone can cause her pains, anxiety and sleep disorders.In order to cope with some financial needs she had to suppress the sensation of pain it caused through the use of Benzodiazepines.

Benzodiazepines also called diazepam are used in treatment of psychological disorders, due to its effects on the neurons that trigger stress and anxiety reactions. The drugs contain chemicals that add to the calming effect already produced by the human body and keep the brain in a more tranquilized state. The misuse or prolonged use of this drug can lead to addiction and dependency. From the statement above , it wasn't stated that drugs where prescribed to Lisa by a Physician. The severe withdrawal symptoms occurs whenever she wants to quit.
