Resolve to be tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant with the weak and the wrong. Sometime in your life you will have been all of these.

These doctors are human,and when they do this type of thing,they are making a major human mistake.

They don't have to live through these circumstances,and mistakes like we have to,from their mistake.

Email the Department of mental health,or Mental Health America,and maybe they can help. I think that ginnie has a idea.

I know,understand,and feal your pain about this situation. I've been though it a couple of times before,and they where wrong,and it's not right,or fair.

Doctors know that it takes a long time to slowly get off this medication when you have been taking it for as long as 10 years. Some people can't do it,and the doctors don't know why. BF

I was on a extremely powerful sleeping medication for two years,and the doctor took me off of it suddenly. That medicine was so powerful,and addictive,that they don't prescribe it in the United States anymore.

He should have weaned me off of it slowly,but he didn't. He knew the medicine was highly addictive. It seems that a doctor just doesn't care about people with anxiety problems after a while. I don't know what it is. The doctors do fail us often.

I emotionally crashed,and tumbled for about two years,not to meantion my regular anxiety condition spiked.

Jesus intervened in my life,and I'm alive. I would have died. BF
