> Jay it's true the holidays are not good times at all. Also I was struck by you saying your meds still work after 20 years. So you have attained remission. Still working at job? Congrats. So maybe my meds could still be working and the holidays just added extra stress so I didn't think they were? Thanks Phillipa
Hi PJ:
Well, what had happened over the holidays is that I forgot to get a refill of my clonazepam to start with. I went through the holidays shivering freezing cold from anxiety, with except say for the extra prozac I had on me. I hope I *never ever* feel as bad as I was. My mind was going in dark places...and I thought the end was near. NOW, I know to make sure I ALWAYS keep at least one bottle ahead of my prescription. The kind doc also added clomipramine, at a good dose, and some respiridone with the benzos. This seems to keep all of the horror in it's place, far away from me.
That was WAY too close....
Thanx Jay :)
