Thank you Angelique, you're very kind. I'm not used to getting any kind of empathy over my physical problems. I have a very extensive trauma history and I was reading about fibro and there's a correlation between trauma and fibro, it makes sense but ugh it sucks. A lot. I was prescribed Lyrica for it so I just started taking that, we'll see what happens I guess. I'll try anything at this point, I'm tired of being in pain and I'm tired of being so tired all the time.

Thankfully my psychiatrist will taper me off the Klonopin safely, so I'm not too worried. I just need to be patient about it, not my strong suit lol but I'll do my best.

This withdrawal **** you've been going through won't last forever, try to hold on. You can get through this. You're so strong for not giving up even though I know you often feel like giving up and wonder what's the point of it all. There is a point, it will get better. I really believe that.


Ditto, I was 16 when I was given Klonopin for the first time. Nobody told me what the **** I was taking, just that it would make me less irritable and less prone to catatonia(I was given ativan for the catatonia too in 2013 because it got really bad for whatever reason, sz/sza are unpredictable illnesses that just do whatever the **** they want to screw up your life, grrr). I'm 24 now, so I've been on Klonopin for... ****, 8 years now... ****...
