Hi Herradura,
Thx so much for sharing a bit of your story!
Yes, doctors can & do sometimes push drugs ( when you start delving into the pharmaceutical co.'s role in it, it really becomes a nightmare! )
4yrs ago, my doctor quit ( w/no warning ) & I was suddenly cut off my meds. I went through what I can only explain as "the living pits of hell." But, you know this.
3mos into what I now know were withdrawals ( but didn't then, ) I saw a new psychiatrist. I told her I was a walking nervous breakdown. She told me, "well of course, you need to be on klonopin for the rest of your life!"
I have no ill will towards her ( who has the mental energy to hold grudges??? )
Ty for replying, I really thought I was alone, but now realize that all I had to do was go looking! Lol!
SoberLeigh, you are so right! And, you are so sweet!
Thx for your support! I truly appreciate it!
