not trying to condone addictive behaviors, i just get way more out of it. intranasal 1mg feels like 4mg sublingual. lots of others feel the same, just make sure to wash the gunk out your nose sooner or later

It’s hard with the pills to measure small doses like 0.25mg , at that point they are just little chunks , the tablets are quite small as is

So how are you doing?

Aw thanks for asking amigo, I’m hangin in there a little stressed

 

[Jnowhere]

It is weird they are depressants but keep up, Valium keeps me calm though even 10mg doesn't help me

 

[Jnowhere]

Why are you stressed?

Yep same here with my clonazepam

 

[Jnowhere]

Never had it, what is like, short or long acting?

Never had it, what is like, short or long acting?

It’s supposed to be one of the longer lasting ones … like longer lasting than Xanax but I think it’s a little shorter than the Valium

 

[Jnowhere]

My doctor is adverse to writing for Xanax, which is probably good, I was on Ativan for a long time and got scared because it is short acting, and I am terrified of benzo withdrawal and Valium is easier to stop using but I am probably a lifer with benzos

I’m actually prescribed Xanax too, but a very small amount (as needed) for breakthrough anxiety like when I have to go to doctor appointments or therapy. But I’m prescribed the clonazepam for every day

So what is your anxiety about or is it too personal, I respect people's boundaries

Thank you for your kindness & respecting boundaries. But yea without going too into it basically I have really bad PTSD from being a survivor of some really tough stuff … & when I tried to escape my ex tried to murder me … so I sustained a lot of injuries & that’s why I have chronic pain & … well it’s complicated but I really try my best … but day to day, night to night I struggle a lot with pain & PTSD
