sooo – serious question here
do most of you guys take anti- anxiety pills when you feel stressed/anxious?
Y’all shouldn’t fuck around with benzodiazepines, that is Klonopin, Valium, Xanax, et al. Don’t take them, and don’t let a doc prescribe them. They are addictive to many people, more so than docs are aware of. Once addicted, they are very hard to get off. Unlike other legal and illegal drugs, where other meds can help you taper down, there is no way to get off benzos easily. And drug treatment centers are used to dealing with junkies, not functional citizens who have been addicted to a legally prescribed drug thru no fault of there own.
If you try and cold turkey off you can develop seizures and occasionally die, along with other nasty side effects, one of which is a propensity to experience the symptoms for which the drug was prescribed, times ten.
If you have panic disorder, there are other treatments, with CBT the best. Don’t pop these pills, they are straight up fucked up.
Snappy, wait until I tell my Caribbean American friend who also loves the Golden Girls that you’ve recently made references to Shul/various Yiddish expressions and posted Dan Fogelberg lyrics. You make Woody Allen look like a Goy!
Denton, I went years without them and was a complete f’ing mess. For some people, benzos and therapy are the answer. Not for everyone, but for some.
That song does make me cry, but I love it so!
A more *snappy* song: (Jim Croce usually makes me cry, but not this one!)
“Well the south side of chicago
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
Of a man named leroy brown
Now leroy more than trouble
You see he stand bout six foot four
All the downtown ladies call him treetop lover
All the mens just call him sir
And its bad, bad leroy brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder than old king kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog”
