I'm very sorry to hear that, and as far as my story goes it's new I'm almost 56 now and still on 2mg 3×@ day and a 14 hour drive one way to get them leaving 3-7 after my appointment, this medication has given me many health issues as well and has kept me from getting weight loss surgery which I need , I have liver issues, kidney issues,heart issues and now pancreas issues but that's due from zepbound, I can't find a Dr within a few hundred miles who will give me this medication, people say I'm an addict, maybe addicted, but I was 15 ,I didn't know any better, when your that age you listen and I was told it was not habit forming, that was a lie ,I was also told I have a law suit , just wouldn't know how to go about it , I'd love to come off but with everything health wise and life in general I don't think it's a good idea , and Ativan,yeah I was a zombie on that ,I did landscaping and drove a commercial mower into the judges house/ garage and swore I didn't do it , because I don't remember doing that ,the evidence proved I did ,I was put on it after my fiance was killed in fathers day of 2011 and still on xanex ,I don't feel like me anymore and I see no help in sight . I wish you the best of luck and know I do understand what you have gone through and continue to do so . Oops I just discovered you weren't talking to me,but I wrote all this so I'm posting it . Lol
Good luck

You can write to me anytime. I read your reply. Life is very hard for all of us who are suffering. I am diabetic and I need to watch my carbs but I also need to try and gain some weight so that I look more human and not like a skeleton. Last night around 4am, with my racing heart, and no sleep, I got out of the bed and went to the kitchen. I had hardly had any dinner and I was hungry so I had a big bowl of cereal which is a no no for a diabetic. I don’t even want to check my blood sugar today. I wish you lived near me because my Primary Care doctor would prescribe you whatever you need in whatever quantity you require. Please continue to let me know how you are doing as I don’t leave the house much due to my racing heart 24/7 and paralyzing fear from my anxiety. I would appreciate having you as a friend.
