I went down on my knees over...Oh MAN, do I relate. <br />I went down on my knees over a year ago and let go of alcohol,but I am totally dishonest with all doctors - just so I will have the OPTION of having a controlled substance prescribed. <br />I, too am on Clonazapam and well, frankly, take a wee bit more than is prescribed for me. You are an inspiration to get honest with myself and others. I have a long way to go. <br />I'm glad you feel better!Catherinehttp://www.qualifiednightsweatsofanaddict.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-246142513107924810.post-17595327401602691872012-12-02T13:36:24.070-05:002012-12-02T13:36:24.070-05:00K- thank you for your advice.

Thankfully my pain is gone now so it's not an issue. One thing that does scare me is the lack of information I have gotten from doctors who continue to prescribe clonzapam. I am feeling much better now and have a follow up with my doctor soon.

There are 2 substances you can die from withdrawls from - alcohol, and benzodiazopenes (clonazepam). So, I urge you, call your doctor, do it appropriately before you become terribly ill and need hospitalization. Be careful!Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03623743277628997568noreply@blogger.com
