In reply to Tired Of Negatives Again On Meds Something for Ho, posted by Phillipa on January 31, 2012, at 12:15:29
As you know,I was unhappy w/remeron & zoloft in the long term,however,in the short term,both of those meds,along w/klonopin,saved me.I was on three for 2yrs.But I also had to do other things: cbt,nutrition,exercise,talking w/others,taking care of animals,etc. to move forward to good mental health.I was angry for awhile that I gained so much weight,but I try not to blame all of it on meds.Klonopin has remained.A constant.It works well for me.It's my nature tho to question it,want to stop it.Mostly, I know it fixes something in my brain.Others may say its a bandaid.I dont feel that way.I can do so many things I wouldnt before,and only on a small,once a day dose:fly,dentist,eye doctor,be assertive when I need to,be unafraid.Is that hopeful? YES!!!
