Getting a script for K-pins

[K-Bumps]

I have been seeing a doc to get meds for my anxiety (for the past while). I have been thru paxil, zoloft, valium, and currently am on celexa and xanax. I was just switched from valium to xanax. Is there an easy way for me to bring the subject of switching to k-pins up without me sounding like a scripter (I kinda played it like I dont know what drug is what, so the doc thinks I have no clue about what benzos are, etc). Any suggestions to get a decent sized dosage (i always get stuck with something small then get bumped up 2 weeks later, but i dont like waiting)

if you wanna move from xanax to kpin, you shouldnt have much trouble.. say youd like to move on to something that lasts a little longer so you dont have to dose as often (twice a day as opposed to three times). also, since it has a longer half-life, its a little harder to get physically addicted to.
now for me, when i was on xanax, the shit at lower (therepeutic) doses makes me irritable, and anything more than a mg knocks me out cold. you might try that as another bonus for kpin.
personally, i woulda liked to have stayed on ativan, but my doc is gonna get suspicious if i keep asking him to change my script, so im just gonna stick with the kpin. i have a script FOREVER, so im gonna have to tread lightly.

i already switched from valium which supposedly has the longest half life cuz i asked if theres anything else that works and he said some people like xanax.

well if he already said "some people like xanax," you should have no problem. go in, say "I dont like xanax, i hear ppl are having better luck with clonazepam." that should be all you need.

I was treated for anxiety and the doc started me on k-pins and and it took me a while for him to move me to xanax.It was something he did not want to do because xan's are stronger so you should have no problem getting K-pins.

K-pins have always been first for me, because it last longer you get the effects from the blood level, whereas with xanax you get it from the initial rush of taking it. All my docs wouldn't give me xanax (probably if I tried, though). Why would you want k-pins? For actual legit use, or because you think their more "fun"? Well, they don't "do" anything for me, except for what they are supposed to.

You have clearly established yourself as having a "legit need" for these medications, and your doctor obviously has no problem with it - simply ask for it by name - say that you have been reading and feel that Klonopin sounds like the best choice out of all the benzos .. if you're afraid of going this route (as exhibiting too much knowledge can be a BAD THING!) I would go withthe "I am looking for something that lasts a little long, and is a little more consistant, I mean, some pill I can take and be good for like 6 hours or so, as is the Xanax kinda works good but dies off fast, I guess you could say it's like a 'spike' or something, I dunna, my mother/sister/someone that doesnt see same doctor is suffering from the almost same problems and said Klonopin worked best" ...
Whats yer current Xanax dose? Celexa as well..

20 mg celexa once a day
0.5 mg xanax 3x a day as needed
I started at:
10mg celexa, 2mg val, eat 2 twice a day, to 5mg val 2x a day, to 5mg val 3x a day.
Switch to xanax:
20 mg celexa once a day, 0.25 mg xanax eat 1-2 4x a day, to 0.5 mg xanax 3x a day
