I didn't know whether to start a new thread or not; sorry if I'm duplicating some of it.

This morning I started my first teeny dose of baclofen. WHY am I so TERRIFIED about starting this med?? I've taken oodles of assorted meds in my lifetime, some short- and some long-term, but I've never felt like this. I've taken meds with a lot scarier potential side effects. I wasn't this scared about starting the stupid Copaxone. What's the deal??

I've got myself worked up into such a state that I'm not going to be able to tell what's the baclofen and what's my freaking out about it. Grrrr. I know I'm doing it, and I can't make myself stop.

Last night during the crazy hours, I even caught myself thinking, "Maybe my fear about this med is a sign that I shouldn't take it." A sign? A SIGN? Really???
