High School is finally over, well exept for graduation this sunday.
I've been posting here for about 1.5- 2 years i belive, and it has helped t know if what im this anxiety is common or psychiatric insanity.
I'm taking Ativan [lorazapeam] 1 X 3 daily. Which really doesnt work very well. I consider it almost unnoticable during a "survival mode", Siqorney Weaver from the film Alien (1979) running around the ship after everyone is killed trying to get to the escape pod, with the alarm going off making me on the break of collapse.
I feel im trying to run from insanity, running from doom.
I need to talk to my pdoc soon, i really havent had much time, i've got to get stable now with a Job, and collage...
Klonopin now, i wished i didnt say it wanst doing anything, it had a more "relief" effect during some sonic stress blowdown than Ativan, and i took only .5mg.
Ativan well, i've said this over before, it doesnt calm in a "relieving" sense, it a more "numbed" sense, it doenst at all make panic stop only at high doses such as 4mg, it still doenst do a good job. Labled for panic disorder, i dont think so, only "main" quality i've read its it has anti-manic properties. Klonopin has the same. Plus about depression, it numbs emotions like somekind of AD, i do believe it is of choice for calming Psychotic symptoms, just from a couple medical websites, but i dont know how accurate.
Anyway, i dropped nicotine habit, main you talk about disorientation, i only used to strike a cigg during a adrenaline alert.
I have very rapid fluctuations in mood, i take adderall, that could be responsible for some of it. I dont think its BI-1, i cant keep a stable mood through out the day, is all i can say.
, im frustrated right now, so i thought i should post, i havent done that in a while, and get some advice now.
THanks, i hope that you are together too.
chill

I wish I could "chill" right now. It seems like the world is going faster and faster and everyone is talking too fast. I wish I had answere for you but I'm sorry I don't. Maybe you will feel better when the pressure of school is over and you have some time off. Fondly, Phillipa

Hi Matt. Maybe your pdoc will have some ideas. Are you taking an anti-depressant right now?
Do you feel your pdoc knows what he or she is doing? It's really important to stay in close contact with your doctor when things are so unstable. You need to find the med cocktail. I hope you do soon.
Maxime
PS A VERY Happy Belated Birthday to you.

thanks, being a legal adult is confusing now. I am on my mom's insurance, and my mom isnt flexable with me moving to other meds. I know i can see my pdoc alone, but still i dont know if she has a say so in treatment or not.
hope everything is doing ok with u.
THanks for posting.
Chill

Hi. Well the only say she has is whether or not she wants you to take a certain med and that's only because it's on her insurance. Otherwise it doesn't matter. I think you should go ahead and see the pdoc. If there are major changes then maybe have your pdoc talk to you mom. I mean one the reaction you had to ativan was crazy.
I think you should go.
