> Klonogirl,
> Thanks for the info. I deceided that I would write down all the possible medications I could be taking and make an appointment with my doctor and see if any are a possibility to switch. So is it hard for you being off your med's and did you or your doctor decide when you should come off of them? Sorry for the personal questions, I just don't know if this disease is with me for the next couple years or for the rest of my life. Some people out there said that they got thier mood-swings undercontrol with med's and were able to eventually come off of them and live a DRUG FREE life. Wouldn't that be nice? You don't have to respond to those questions if they are too personal... thanks for the info again...

Well Jen .....I think he would have kept me on it for life. It was a quick $150 and a prescription. This Doc is one of :- ) the best in Chicago. I was on this for four (4!) years. At the time I needed this i was a mess.one panic attack after the next......very debilitating.I did not want to leave the house!
Butthe time i went off..my memory was so screwed up. I deceide that i wanted to go off and it took me about 6 months or more to do it! very slow process. Stress makes me get into a straglehold.and i reach for comfort.....KLONOPIN
I really have had only two bouts with taking some and have been able to keep myself on track most of the time. I dunno Jen......I am a fairly normal person i think. But i see other members of my family have similar or the same problems. Actually all three girls in our family. My mom....my neice...my adult son. It is strange. Good luck :)
