You need to go to the ER Magnolia. We can help and support you, and help you find Hope again…but you need professional medical help right now.

Dee I miss my baby. I read a post you wrote on what you were doing on 9/11/2001. Know what I was doing the morning my sister died in the towers? I was drunk.

You really need to go to an ER. Klonopin and alcohol can be a deadly combination.

I was/am prescribed benzodiazepines for sever panic attacks.

This tragic event triggering me I can't cope with.

It might seem like you’re stopping the pain but you’re not really…it’s still there just going around and around, like a plain in a holding pattern.

Pretty soon the numbing will wear off and you’ll want to be numb again.

Its a vicious cycle Magnolia.

As painful as loss and grief is, the only way to get past it is to go through it.

I know that sucks, but it’s true.

I’ve been drunk many many times over my life including the loss of a pet. I wish I had stayed sober.
My pets deserved a sober me, just like I deserved a sober me.

So you and I messed up a few times…it’s never too late to become who you should have been all along.

Get yourself along to the ER Magnolia. That’s the first step.

Script or not, I think you understand you’re not using the medication correctly Magnolia.

non one is prescribed 56 tablets daily or with booze.

Please take care of yourself and get some professional medical attention for your physical and mental health.

Like I said before, you deserve to be taken care of…but only you can start that process by seeking the appropriate help, Magnolia.

Please Magnolia - get help. This isn't something you can handle alone. We all care about you & don't want to lose you.

Dee is right Magnolia. You need help to get past this. Alcohol is not helping you, it's a vicious cycle trap and I think the way you're using Clonopin is just making it worse. You're treating symptoms, not the underlying issue.

The ER is a really good idea. Be honest with them so they understand and can help. Ask for help and work with them and you'll get real hope.

Do you mean 56 K in one go, or over a number of days, Magnolia? Any amount combined with alcohol is not good. Fifty six needs you to go to hospital. That's the advice from a friend Magnolia.

Magnolia, just because you are prescribed benzos doesn't mean you should take 56 at one time and with alcohol. Please go to an ER. There is nothing we can do to help you with this medical crisis. After you are treated at an ER, we will help you with hope and support. That's what we can do. What we can't do is to help you with your medical crisis.

Magnolia, I hope you've called 911 and been transported to an ER already.

Thank you friends. Went to the ER.where I was given IV Valium and hydration.

A weird thing happened. When I was being reviewed by the mental health team a woman in the next room heard me explaining the reason I was there and crying.

She pulled her IV over to where I laid there sobbing, grabbed my hand and said " I just want you to know that God sees your tears"

When I got home a local woman from my church called me out of the blue.

She shook me and said I was not grieving but in torment and my girl is whole and safe in the arms of God.

It gave me the ability to breathe better without panic.

I'm a little more peaceful.

I have no more benzos ( took them all ) but I'm hoping to not have to call 911 again.

Thank you all so much for the kindness. Greatly needed and appreciated.

And Steely that was a months supply of clonazepam taken in about a week.

Coming off them is excruciating

Hi Magnolia,
. I think you've been in a number of peoples' prayers here today.
Yes, I also believe our pets pass into Gods kingdom. They are inocent like little children.
Your beloved dog is safe now and I bet would want you to be safe too.
I'm glad to hear this upbeat report.
