Default I am afraid and anxious

Hi,
Considering this new dx feeds into my life long fear of sleep.


On my own a little while ago, I sort of figured that I might have this dx. I didn't ask any docs for help because I don't want it to be true. . . . so I have been dreading thinking about this for a while now.

The neurologist is too far away -- and lots of traffic.


And I do not think that I would agree to the cpap machine treatment anyway.
It freaks me out just to think about the dx and I have been anxious and depressed all day.


But maybe the sleep-study would turn up something else besides/instead of apnea and would give me some information.

I wonder if the Klonopin interferes with sleep.
Maybe I should go off the stuff.
The pdoc and I began a Klonopin taper over the summer but the tdoc noticed that I was becoming anxious. I didn't believe her but agreed to go back up to full dose.
