I'm also not crazy about what benzos do to the brain and how that may affect it in the long run. Can you tell I'm not a fan of benzos?LOL...no not at all...lol
Here's the thing though....I'm going to be in a very stressful situation (for me) in a few days. I kinda know how the xanax affects me. I am leary to go into the stressful situation not knowing how the klonipin is going to work. I cannot be flat.period.at all. This type of work has me in front of people all day long and can also be physically draining when I get busy. It is definitely not a perfect solution, but one hopefully that can work in the interim.
As far as Lamictal goes I hope so too....I'm definitely not as low as I was, and not feeling nearly as anxious, but have some concerns about possible side effects...see update from previous thread.
Your responses are always appreciated, thank you Morgan. :o)
