@sears and all...Really? I've prayed for him for the Lord to heal his pain, to send someone to help, to bless the doctors he's seeing at the moment, to bless the situation, to give him relief emotionally from the horrible losses of his whole life, etc and etc. I've asked for prayers and he's getting them from my church prayer group, and others as well. Other than some kind of Holy intervention, I see no hope for my son to have any further relief from his acute or chronic pain, to have a life with any semblance of quality or joy. Dystonia and his medical issues have no solution as far as I know. The damage caused by Klonopin's sudden withdrawal is enormous, both physical and emotional. I now have a precious, bright son filled with pain and emotional rage, paranoia, and uncontrollable explosions.

Please, I appreciate your positive outlook and I've worked every second of the last 20 years to present him with positive options, with support and to be there for him...I've been in a 20-year fight-or-flight situation and I'm exhausted. I'm also furious with the medical profession, and the health centers that can't/don't/won't/dodon't know how to give him some help. It's been completely impossible to imagine the calls I've made, docs who don't or can't help, the psychiatrists who aren't available...

So, thank you for your support and your good thoughts. Please keep them coming. But, I"m pretty much through with any expectations of helping him in any way.
Be blessed, Elizabeth
