Dan like I said I have been in PM for 7 years. I have seen some crazy things just while sitting in the waiting room and I can see why these doctors are paranoid. Some people just act crazy when after they tried to get over and lost. If someone walked into my office and behaved in such a manner I would just call the police they end.....

I appreciate your concern but klonopin has been a godsend for my PTSD and anger issues. It's much better than the laundry list of SSRI's, SRNI's, Anti-psychotics, and amphetamines that I was prescribed when I was younger, those things made me suicidal and I won't even begin to go into the horror of that whole situation.

Plus I don't have to take it every day if I don't feel like I need to. I know there's concern for psychological (and physical) addiction. But you gotta understand you're talking to someone who's tried almost every drug you can try, has lost control, and regained control. I know what's best for my body and what's not. If it weren't for all this country's stupid laws I would be an excellent pharmacist, I'm a strong advocate for self-teaching especially when it comes to putting substances in your body, I never take a drug from a doctor before thoroughly researching it, same goes for when I was in my experimental stages.

You're a kind lady Gabby, your son is blessed to have you as a mother.

Hi Dan,

I totally agree with you I would take a klonopin before all that other medication you mentioned if I needed to again. The SSRI, SSNI's etc. is a crazy line of medication and I would not take it either. That kind of medication is percribed so recklessly it unbelievable.

Just wanted to follow up. Hope your feeling better today.

Thank you for that very sweet compliment, you made me cry. That was very kind.

Keep us posted.
