    Klonopin. How Slippery Of A Slope Are Benzodiazepines?

    I like Klonopin and I've been taking it for years. Its about the only thing that really works on my anxiety. I combine it with zoloft. I've been without both for about six months due to a job loss but I plan to get back on them as soon as humanly possibly. This cocktail works for me. I think...

    Do You Have Any Friends?

    I always thought I had great friends. Until the sh*t hit the fan. They had me committed then stopped talking to me, cut me out of long standing activities and now I don't have any. PTSD sucks.

    Feeling Hopeless And Different From Everyone

    You're not alone. I don't have the answers, but I'm in the same phase right now. I can't focus or function in the way that I'm used to doing. I don't have advice for you, just wanted to let you know that others experience the same thing.

    Routine W/ Mental Illness?

    When I could afford it I had a cleaning lady... currently my house is a wreck. Lists help sometimes, but unfortunately I'm terrible at the basics. It's a constant struggle. *Again... nice to know it's not just me who deals with these things...

    Why Do People Lie?

    That may seem like a stupid question... but I'm unbelievably sensitive to lies. The one facing me currently? That anyone cares enough to learn how to support me. I have no support system other than my husband and he's at wits end. When someone gives into their illness and S/I people tell each...

    Relationship My Marriage Is Falling Apart

    I'm sorry for all you are going through. The sudden mood swings would make me question the medication. Is it working? Is she still taking it? Just my first thought... Hope you find the help you need.

    Sufferer Life Is A Struggle. Past Trauma And Present Day Pressures Feel Like A Huge Burden.

    Most of the time I just read other people's posts here and somehow that makes me feel better... less alone. I can at least relate to things here.

    Rug Pulled Out

    I'm realizing that part of my issues stem from the constant struggle to survive. I'm always looking for my path, I work really hard and then inevitably something happens that completely changes my plan. Life's rug has been pulled out from underneath me so many times, I'm exhausted. I am a...

    Thanks for listening and the responses... It's oddly comforting to know I'm not alone in this...

    Running Away...

    Does anyone else have fantasies of just running away from your life? I go through phases where I become so overwhelmed that I literally want to run away. I'm an adult, relatively happily married, but yet when things get really rough, I want to run away like a teenager. I don't know if this is...

    What Made You Angry Today?

    Today? Comcast. My sister who continues to be the worst. My former BFF who told me my illness is inconvenient for her.

    Can A Person Be Too Broken?

    Your post was on point tonight. As I am feeling way too broken. My trauma was different from yours, but my pain is the same. I wonder how I got here. How I managed to surround myself with people who legitimately find me to be a nuisance now. The few people I thought I could count on, distanced...
