I chose a lucid moment to write this, because I wanted to let you all know what was going on and explain why I would not be as active until I am feeling better.
As many former PR members know, my doctor had recently discussed taking me off Clonazepam. Due to a miscommunication between my doctor's office and the pharmacy, it took so long for my refill that I started showing withdrawal symptoms. When my doctor saw how addicted my body was to the drug, she insisted that I discontinue it immediately. She is switching me to Buspirone, which will do nothing to help me through this because it is not in the same class as most anti-anxiety medications. Instead, she told me to just take more lorazepam (Ativan) until it subsides.
I have an amazing support system. My family is taking wonderful care of me. My sister-in-law even sent me a couple Xanax. So please do not worry. I will get through this. It is just really difficult right now.
Thank you, to everyone who took the time to read this.
