He said to just take it. i don't think it will do the trick because sometimes i take a whole one besides the two i take and i still have a lot of anxiety.
the dentures have to take getting used to again. the dentist told me to go out and get something hard to eat. down the block was a wonderful bagel place. i had two.he wants to see me for a cleaning in two months and then every three months. He said i have a lot of bone loss. I think it will cost 110 dollars. at first i was afraid to ask because the deep cleaning was 288. I had more to drink and i guess i have enough left for two glasses. i will try not to buy another bottle. it really makes me feel better but i know from my father what a horrible habit it is..but i am afraid i will get another bottle.

Hi Bobby,

Taking an extra 0.5 mg daily will be different/better than taking an extra whole one from time to time, because it will raise your blood level past what a single 1mg dose would. It will take at least a week to hit steady state at the new dose. Depending how your body processes the Klonopin, it might even go up past that.

See if you can hold off on buying the Scotch at least a week, and see how you feel., because alcohol also causes cross-tolerance with benzos... regular drinking will slowly make the Klonopin less effective.

Also, if you don't feel better in a couple weeks, I'd put a call in to your doctor.

How great that you got to have bagels! Interesting advice from the dentist too. I guess it is to help you get accustomed to pressing down. It makes sense somehow.

Take care.

love

that is interesting about the dosage every day. i have confidence in the dentist. i am currently biting the side of my mouth on the bottom at times. I hope i stop. i will try to hold off buying the scotch....i gave up smoking cold turkey so if i can do that, i should be able to do it with scotch. i just read an article that drinking wine moderately will lessen the chance of depression if you don't already suffer from it. I feel so edgy.

last night i had another glass of scotch and then i got so depressed. the magic has worn off so now i think i have an aversion to it.
I also skipped my medications last night. that hasn't happened in a long time.
I also got depressed because i tried to return a 100 dollars of mutilated bills that i had left under my futon which got wet from the flood and when i discovered it i got sad. I had taken the money i thought that was under there out the time of the flood. that also was damp but dried easily. I tried to return it to my bank and they said no. I found the moneyfactory.gov where i can return it with an explanation and wait to hear from them in three to six months.
I have also been going over my will. I asked one of my close friends if she would take care of my body and she said yes. Then i told my friend to whom i am leaving everything.she wants me to go to her lawyer to double check my will and she said she would pay for it. she said it would make her more comfortable about possible lawsuits from my family. That was depressing.
On the other hand, my cleaning woman showed another example of how bright she is. she figured out my neighbor's new microwave within seconds.
I am so lucky

the scotch didn't just touch my anxiety. it made me feel good. i asked my father when he was in his sixties why he drank so much. he said it makes him feel good...he sort of stopped when he no longer had financal pressures.
he also gave up smoking around that time. i
i just had another glass of scotch and fill good so far.i realize how dangerous it is for me to use it as a crutch besides the sugar and not drinking when on medications. I don't take it lightly.some link alcohol to cancer
bobby

yes breast cancer specifically!

yet another thing for us to worry about.....
