Hi everyone!I'd been taking k once per day at night.I decided to try 1/2 dose at night,1/2 dose in morning.I like it.I kept total dose same.I thought daytime dosing(unless for panic attack),would make me drowsy,unproductive.However,to my surprise,I feel great.I sleep better too.

I do think they work better when split. I would think it would just eliminate anxiety. I might try splitting my benzos again since sleep so well. Glad it worked well for you. Glad overall you are doing super well. Phillipa

Thanks,phillipa.I am feeling good,even with spring allergies on board.Working in the flower beds,hiking,staying busy.So, are you still on valium,luvox,and xanax? I think dividing the dose makes sense,if you have developed a tolerance to the drowsiness,and dont feel loopy.Cant stand to feel like that during the day!Thats why Ive always done nighttime dosing.

Something strange is happening to me besides breaking out in a rash like eczema which I suppress with cortisone cream I've become irritated and tired. What should I do? Have cut the doses a little you forgot the 2.5 lexapro. Can one develop allergies to meds, supplements. I'm at a loss been trying to figure this out for weeks and it gets worse daily? Phillipa

This isn't my thread but no not shingles as it follows a nerve it's spots in different sites. First thing thought of was the detergent as already use a hypoallergenic one but they didn't have the one we had used before last time bought it. I'd babblemail you but it's not on you could do that to me. As do not want to hyjack especially since you and Laney need to discuss klonopin. I wouldn't mess with the klonopin now either. Phillipa
