Declan,
I'm really sensitive to the idea of being addicted to a drug, benzodiazepines in particular. I've always been very adamant about no drugs (street drugs) and have never smoked a single thing in my life. I even get freaked out when I am drinking one beverage a day for couple days in a row.I've had this discussion with my pdoc many times, who tells me that I'm not taking enough of it (klonopin) to live my life without crippling panic symptoms. I resist taking this drug like it's poison.
It would help me a little bit if you would reconsider comparing a prescribed Rx to meth (unsure which meth you are referring to, but either one is unrelated chemically to clonazepam).
Also, there are other good reasons for me to be on an anticonvulsant.
I find this criticism of my dosage and pdockery a little upsetting. At the moment I'm trying very hard to keep myself put together and the klonopin is helping a lot, in my opinion. The pdoc really has to tell me at least once a week to take the dose he prescribes. That's probably because I keep writing panicky emails to him about being manic panicked for a couple days and insomniac and stuff.
yours,
-Ll
