Ok - need some help here from all of you. I've been on Klonipin for close to three years now and It WAS a great drug until recently. It helped me with my anxiety and racing thoughts so that I could sleep but I ended up getting a side effect that doesn't occur for most - getting angry and hostile + I started developing respiratory problems. I'm down from 2.5mg to 1 mg but have had trouble sleeping all week. I'm on my fifth day with intermittent sleep. ie. I get really tired so I go to sleep and then I wake up after two or three hours and have been repeating this for a week now.
I'm also tired of my pdoc. I've tried so many ad I just feel that maybe I just need to focus on the positives for a while and not try and re-hash stuff in therapy. Have any of you tried this b-4? I'm BP2 and have PTST. I just want it to be ok..Sleepless calling for help.
I also have problems at work - people tend to dislike me and I've always felt like an outsider. Never part of the clique. Do any of you ever find yourself in this position? If I try and participate, I end up saying something that someone doesn't like and then I agonize over it forever...How do I stop the cycle and the spiral in my own head?
