How are you doing, Jamsie?
I hope you have received a call from the counselor.
You are not alone.
Thank you for the journaling idea. You have inspired me to return to logging in to my daily journal. That will help in reporting to my doctor who I see next week.
I am blessed to have found this doctor who gave me a well defined program for titrating off of Clonazapam.
He is not only an M.D. but has a doctorate in psychology. He is young and compassionate.
Stay the course. If I can do this after taking Clon for
many years, YOU will do the same.
You are in my prayers.
Please say one for me.

Hello @jamsie,
I read your most recent post and while I realize that it was directed to @helenfrances, I noticed that you wrote about "journaling off and on." Mayo Connect has a great discussion group on the topic of journaling that you might enjoy also find helpful. The title of the discussion is "Journaling, the Write Stuff For You?" Here is the link to that discussion, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/journaling-the-write-stuff-for-you/.
Journaling does help with the feeling of isolation, doesn't it? As you read the posts in this group, you will find members, just like yourself, who use journaling as a way to better understand how they are feeling and the progress they are making towards self-understanding.
Will you take a look at that discussion and let me know what you think?
