I've solved the problem. I went from 1.5 mg a day on clonazepam to taking as much as I need to try to give this pristiq some time.
I'm sleeping and not totally screwed up this morning.
If my doc says don't ever do that without me approving it, I'm firing him to his face.
Doctors study this stuff for years but they don't take it. If they did, they would have a true street perspective of what it's like.
Besides the pdoc in the hospital, I've never met a truly sane shrink.
For instance: Doc, I haven't slept for days and I'm worn out.
Take this pill, Phil.
They don't ask if you're drinking 6 pots of coffee a day etc and that's just wrong.Do I think they really care about their patients true well being?
Not in my experience and I have tons of examples.When your road gets rocky--go to the hospital. Do they call or visit? Nope. You're out of site, out of mind.
Do I respect any of them I've seen. No.
That's just my experience but I've spent half my life dealing with them.
