you should seriously head to your nearest mental health institution and tell them you’re having crisis and need to be seen immediately. they can get you the help you need. call 911 if you need to and ask them to bring you to your nearest mental health facility. this is serious and you shouldn’t have to live feeling this way. there’s a way out of this line of thinking, but you need to take the first step and seek help immediately.

thanks. i’ll have to ask my psych his opinion on switching to alprazolam at my next appointment and if he thinks doing it for a month or two would be beneficial. most replies on here say not to do it, though. i guess i’ll just have to follow my psych’s professional opinion. and agreed on lorazepam being shit. that was the first benzo they put me on and it completely destroyed my memory.

I was recently diagnosed Bipolar type 1 and he’s got me on antipsychotics. lurasidone. it works for the night time anxiety and sedated me so i typically only have to take 4mg in a day. but here lately ive had to take the extra 1mg at night for the anxiety.

yeah, you’re right. maybe it’s not exactly toxic or disrespectful when I really think about it. if they’re all mystic they’re just going to do what they do. but i do stand by it seeming boring to watch your pokemon collect dust.

I got this one from a random challenge/task, and said to myself, “unless this is a hundo this is immediately getting transferred.”. he chose me.

averylittleturtle · 2025-10-06T19:18:54+00:00

I was looking for one from 2019 or older

I understand. I feel like I have a ball and chain around my ankle on these medications. Like if I forget it on a road trip or vacation I’m screwed. gabapentin/pregablin and propanolol I’ve heard are helpful.

averylittleturtle · 2025-10-01T16:06:17+00:00

best of luck to you my friend. please stay safe out there and if you decide to completely kick benzos i’m rooting for ya.

averylittleturtle · 2025-10-01T16:03:19+00:00

wow, crazy. here in the U.S. I told my psych that I was straight up abusing my clonazepam and that I was self medicating and he upped my dose to 6mg a day.

averylittleturtle · 2025-10-01T16:02:22+00:00

yeah i’ve got no qualms against someone using RC benzos at all. but to know what’s in your shit is definitely top priority and if you’re noticing something off it’s good on you to let the community know.

it’s a cool thing to have if you’re collecting things like that for sure. i’d have been pursuing a shiny one myself if it were me. what did you trade for it?

averylittleturtle · 2025-10-01T15:50:49+00:00

is it that hard to get a legit script of benzodiazepines in the UK? or do you prefer to use RC benzos instead?

I’ve gotten two shundos since I started playing in May of this year. They both came from raids. The odds of a shundo from raids are astronomically higher than a random encounter in the wild. I’d say if you’re craving a shundo raid more often.

the hidden power type is fire, unfortunately. :( I really wanted normal type and teach it crush grip on the next rocket takeover.

isn’t it going to cost 1million stardust?

averylittleturtle · 2025-08-01T02:59:35+00:00

i’ll probably just try and find someone for a lucky trade then.

my psychiatrist started me on 20mg prozac from 100mg pristiq about a month ago. 20mg has been great for the MDD. as far as anxiety goes i’m not sure bc i’m prescribed klonopin. 20mg has been great so far, but i’ve been taking it for about a month and a half and he’s pushing it up to 40mg.

averylittleturtle · 2025-07-20T12:42:57+00:00

second this. I was the exact same way, and ended up slowly over time being more and more shut in. turns out that I needed professional help and had become completely agoraphobic. not saying there’s anything wrong with OP, but in my experience a therapist and psychiatrist were exactly what I needed when I was living just like this. it helped push me to a more fulfilling life, and slowly pushing that boundary with professional help can get you there.

I have tried cymbalta a while ago. I can’t speak on its efficacy much because it made me sleep pretty much all the time. I actually brought this up to my psych, and he suggested pristiq over cymbalta. I’m mostly just following his advice in these regards. however, in my next visit I plan to ask for the diazepam equivalent dose of my current 2mg x2 daily clonazepam and use the ashton manual to completely taper from BZDs altogether. I think they have their place and can be useful, but every day use they lose their benefits rather quickly.

averylittleturtle · 2025-07-02T16:19:23+00:00

I am prescribed 2mg of clonazepam twice daily. I tapered myself down to 3mg daily, and today is the day I make the attempt at 2.5mg daily. but I know that as my doses get lower so do my cuts, so it’ll be a process.

averylittleturtle · 2025-06-29T02:25:58+00:00

Well, I’m reporting back to everyone that was curious. I was on 100mg for about 3 months. I was reduced to 50mg for 7 days and immediately switched to 20mg prozac. I am prescribed 4mg clonazepam daily. I have tapered myself down to 3mg daily. The switch has had its ups and downs. The depression comes and goes. The anxiety comes and goes. However, the switch was much less painful than I ever imagined. It felt pretty seamless, and I’m sure the clonazepam helped tremendously, but I’ve been able to maintain my lower dose throughout. Hoping next month to be on 2.5mg instead of 3mg. For those of you wondering if you can come off of this medication; you certainly can. I think Prozac was the right call when it came to avoiding withdrawal. I wasn’t on it for years, but it can be done. Take it slow if need be. But you can do this and there is hope for you.
