Taking 60 Klonopin in four days can't possibly be "as prescribed." So yes, I think this is "drugging."

This site points out that anxiety and insomnia can increase when initially taking this medication; I imagine this remains true if you take too much: https://www.nami.org/Learn-More/Trea...epam-(Klonopin)

I second LadySadie's advice here. Please call for help. I'm not sure if this was on the list of help sources previously, but it seems if you Google "Crisis Intervention Team" for your county in Florida, you will find one. In my state, those agencies come to the person's home. Looks like the magic phrase is, "I'm having a psychiatric emergency," which you are, Shift. I imagine they will help you to sort out what to do about the dogs, if indeed anything needs to be "done" at this time.

Please call - you are really suffering and really deserve help.

You are safe right now.

Nothing bad is happening right now.

The probation thing, call. That's the way to sort it out.

Don't take any more pills than it says on the label. Don't mix with alcohol...that makes your mental health problems worse.

I understand.

But what chance do you have now of coming out of this on your own? The last time I sought help, I also thought I knew for certain what was going to happen; I'm happy to report the outcome was much much better than I expected. Call the crisis people, tell them you need help and how traumatizing your previous experience was.

If you can't do that yet, how about trying the NAMI HelpLine for advice?

Did you take more pills today?

I am very sorry you are suffering, it sounds miserable. In addition to sending miserable you sound very unstable, anxious and afraid. I too suffer from mental health issues so absolutely no judgement here. none. With that said though, in the condition you are in, how bad could getting taken to the local hospital and getting put up in the psychiatric ward for five days be?
Really?
You need serious mental health care and it is out there. Fear is a natural reaction but if you can take some deep breaths and find it in you to reach out for help you can turn this situation around and start on the path out of this misery.
I get where you are coming from but there is a way out.
The dogs will be fine. They will.
You will be fine too if you stop drinking, stop abusing your medication and get the psychiatric help you need.
I will be thinking of you and wishing you the best. But that isn't enough, you have to take charge of your own mental health and an internet forum is simply not enough. You must seek face-to-face personalised care from a professional.
Best of luck to you.

I've been there. My solution? Get angry, very angry, not afraid.
Call every single crisis line in the phone book. Call your doctor. Call the ER. Explain "I am taking my medication and something is WRONG"
Not all medications work for all people. You might need a change, in which case the only way about that is to ask politely for an appointment with your doctor ASAP. If they can't give you an emergency appointment after your polite request, demand one.
No one is coming to arrest you for walking out of walmart with some toilet paper and no one is coming to help you out of this mess. You must advocate for yourself and request help.

I'm not trying to scare you at all. The next statement is made with care and concern. You are over-reacting right now.
Stop. Continue to breathe. Get to your phone and call 911. Now.

Good call. Definitely, definitely talk to your doctor as soon as possible. You do not have to suffer like this.
I too had a very bad experience with some medications and I kept going to my doctor and he kept saying "oh you are just depressed and anxious" and then upped my dosage. And it got worse, and so I went back.... this went on for about 8 months. I finally got it that he was not listening and taking me seriously and so I changed doctors and he said "no wonder you feel like ****, all this medication would make anyone feel that way" and he wiped out what the other doctor had given me and got me started on something new- less meds and lower dosages. He explained that more does not equal better with psychiatric meds, often less is more.
If your doctor will not take you seriously get a new one. You have every right to be heard and to feel better.
Please consider calling 911 though, you sound very bad off and I, like others, am worried about you.

Are you drinking now?
That is a bad idea for an alcoholic. It is a bad idea for someone taking psychiatric medications. It is a bad idea for someone who suffers from depression. It is a bad idea for someone who suffers from anxiety.
