> I'm on 300mg Lamictal and 150 of Effexor. I seem to have a Personality Disorder (she says last week).I was Bipolar for 3 yrs previous. So she tells me I have 1 month to stop my Klonopin. I am anxious I have a wierd pain/nausea behind my eyes, extreme irritability and impulsive anger outburts (yelling or throwing things). So she prescibes, therapy therapy therapy.
> I know I sound like a junky but when I take my Klonopin I feel ok. Why take it away?IMHO, you have a Benzo-phobic doctor, or one that belongs to a physcians group who are cutting back on Benzo's.
If the Knlonpin is helping you, when you need it, adn you havent abused it, you need to find a new doctor.
Benzos' are some of the safest medications available, BTW.
If it helps you, I suggest you DUMP this doctor and find one that wants to help you, not some chump who tows the corporate HMO line.
