Ok, I know you aren’t supposed to, but for the last 5 years I’ve been taking tranquilizers that were not prescribed to me. I got a handful from a family member and I’ve been taking them or my husband has been forcing me to take them when my anxiety and racing thoughts get too extreme. In total I think I’ve done it about 10 times only, but if I had an unlimited supply I would have probably taken them at least 25 times in the last 5 years. This started when I had really crappy insurance and my options were limited. I would like to ask my pdoc for a scrip, but I’m not sure how to ask. I need something to help calm me down when my mind is racing and my anxiety is through the roof. Right now the stress is really high and I kind of freaked out last night and I had nothing to knock me back down. I don’t want him to think I’m a drug seeker.
