Hi, @grandmaj5 - what has your psychiatrist prescribed/suggested to help you deal with the PTSD from the workplace bullying, beyond no longer working?

@blindeyepug - thinking of you.

At my age of 82 I have seen much, much bullying. It is a shame that this is still continuing. The way we bring up our children is so very important but, if one family teaches the right way then another family does not and does not follow through then here we go. The schools are a large factor with this as well. But then the law comes into it. Everyone (including the schools) is afraid of being brought to the courts and being sued. I wish there was home schooling when my children were going to school. My son was born with a cleft lip and palate. He was disfigured and they let him know it. To this day he has PTSD from this but is doing well. Of course the bullies will pick on anyone they care to. I have a question for them: Are you proud of yourself? And again ask them this when their children are in school will they also be bullies?

I am on Topimax, Clonazepam, Zoloft, and Adderall (ADHD). I also take a vitamin B vitamin (suggested by a Pharmacist). Everyone asks me how I can take Adderall with Clonazepam (they think they will cancel one another out. For some reason, they don't do that to me. I am working on getting off Clonazepam (long story). I am now getting off Clonazepam by myself, because I had horrible symptoms from the schedule I was given (3 weeks). I do feel I need a smaller dose. I am now tapering slowly (small doses throughout the day, which is half of me prescribed dose). They say that a person knows their own body. Thanks for asking and also than you @blindeyepug for thinking of me.
