I've recently started being treated for my Panic Disorder. Saw a doctor, told him I self medicated with marijuana, .5g a day, but it wasn't working anymore and I didn't want to continually get worse. Doc started me on Klonopin (.5 mg 2x a day). Told me, off record and unofficially, stick with the mj, it's fine, even marked my charts as a non drug user.)
Love it.
The panic and anxiety were gone (starting to build a tolerance, I can feel them coming back. I think .5mg 3x a day would work perfect, but that's up to him). I've felt more creative and clearheaded than I have in a long time (my typing does seem to suffer though.
). I went through a little period of adjustment to needing to be medically medicated. I guess I've had some sort of bias against using pharms to be "normal", but came to realize it wasn't any different than smoking some bud for my anxiety. The problem is that I'm irritable in those pre-dosage last few hours.
Bad.
So bad that my wife called the doctor and talked to him about it.
Then talked to me about it. :feelinglikeadick:
I'm not violent, I just don't have any patience with anyone at all. All the kids are on my nerves, the wife's not happy and off her meds becaue the doc thinks her issues are thyroid related and the newbie makes me nuts, and I have to admit I've yelled at him a few times when the constant whining, tugging, crying, wanting something he can't communicate to me right in the middle of a very touchy piece of photoshop work or some serious typing is going on. :feelinglikeadiseaseddick: I feel like a dick about it immediately, but I've just been on a hair trigger lately.
He calls in a script for me, she brings it home tonight and it's for Prozac.
yay.
In addition to the Klonopin.
yay again.
So... anybody been on it? Got a story about it? I use Erowid.org (along with wiki and a few other sites) to research all my chemicals, pharms and herbals. I like the ability to read about how it affected others and what they may or may not have used/abused/infused it with or for.
There are several members on here I hope to hear from, I respect their knowledge and opinions, but if you're using it, I want to know what you think.
So... whatcha got?
Love it.
