Monday I start taking one of the more reputable anxiety meds than the crappy Xanax that only lasts 5 hours. I start my first round of klonopin that lasts 15 hours. I took it in the hospital, made me a little sleepy but not like knock out Trazadone sleepy just foggy.

Benzos are only a crutch I've heard it a thousand times but i've been on a benzo since 1997... that's like 30 years of my life my brain has been permanently hardwired for. I look for a good change this year and after the holidays to get back into the habit of AM &PM Yoga DVD that helped out my anxiety a few years ago. Not so flexable more inflatable so i'll need that stretch strap.

Cheers and Happy Holidays!
