It's good you're not taking too much klonopin, it's really physically addictive & can make you depressed. I take them & do think they help me feel better, but I hate the idea of being addicted to anything. I quit smoking too. I know the feeling every thing is so hard and there's no clear answer or relief in sight, meanwhile trying to raise children. I hope appt goes ok. Maybe he'd let you do a partial payment today, although it is early in the relationship... Let us know how it goes. Take care.

Depending on where you live (I'm in SW U.S.A.), people should know that most drug manufacturers have what is (dumbly) called an INDIGENT DRUG PROGRAM. This is for those who cannot afford meds. Your doctor can contact them and get a form for you to fill out. You tell them what your income is. That is how they judge whether to help you or not. Sometimes all you have to pay is maybe $10 for an Rx. Other times, the med can be free. This can be done for any med where I am located.
If you have med. insurance, this will cover most of the drug costs. If you're not in the U.S., your country may have a similar program. Check into it. If doc won't help with this, find another doc who will. Most docs use faxing to do this.
Best wishes to you!
