Among the 23 states that now allow some form of legal weed, New York's law is among the most restrictive.

Finally, while the health commissioner has the authority to approve additional conditions, he refused to add PTSD despite compelling evidence that medical cannabis can help and has far fewer side effects than the cocktail of drugs usually prescribed.

Not taking your meds is your decision.

But please be careful… keep your eyes open for new or worsening symptoms, keep talking to us, and call your pdoc right away if you need to.

Would you feel comfortable letting Cecilia know what you're doing so she could be on the lookout for any changes? Or just ask her to be mindful without telling her why?

Are you still experiencing anxiety? If you are, please take the klonopin as needed…

Stopping the antidepressants and tapering off the klonopin yourself at the same time makes me very nervous, Bobby. If you are still having anxiety, but want to cut back or stop the klonopin, you can wait until the effects of the antidepressants wear off before you tackle that problem. Too many med changes at once is dangerous. It's tricky even if you're doing it under the direction of a pdoc.

i am still taking klonopin and cecilia thinks it is great. i am even walking better as i mentioned
thanks for caring
bobby

I love you Bobby :hug::hug::hug:
I just want to make sure you are okay.

I am so glad that Cecilia knows what you are doing and is supportive. I know that you see her often enough for her to notice any serious changes.

I am also very happy to hear that you are still taking the klonopin right now.

Walking better is a good thing :) The sedative effect, and other side effects of meds, can definitely effect your gait. I've noticed the same thing when stopping or changing the doses of different meds.

Hope thinigs are still going well.
