Yeah, I can understand the fact that it's abuse. However based on that, it's too bad you get a scarlet letter hung around your neck.

Another reason to switch docs and not transfer your records.

In crisis, I took more lorazepam than prescribed for a couple weeks in an attempt to keep stuff manageable so I could stay out of the hospital. Maybe 3 pills per day instead of half or one? It worked for a week or two. I found out later that the hospital folks labeled me a substance abuser! Thank goodness my real doctors could see reality.

Pdoc called. She wants me to take my zyprexa during the day. Little bit by little bit. Then take what's left at night. Sounds like a plan to me.

Zyprexa is really an anxiety killer so much that I really don't take the xanax I am prescribed that much.
