[Ghost On The Highway]

Mental health treatment is a funny thing. Sometimes it seems like a matter of blind luck when a medication works for you, or the cruel hand of fate when a previously effective treatment stops working. I feel better now than I have in years, but I don't know why. It could be that I'm not drinking or smoking weed as much and that my brain has "recovered" from damage. Or maybe the antidepressants I take caused some kind of neural adaptation for the better. Maybe it's just my situation, or outlook, or the results of meditation. Who knows? You're almost my age and have probably been through worse situations. I think you should make your own decision on the prozac, though it's very important you tell your doctor. As for the clonazepam, have you told him how you feel on it now? It could be the right choice to stick with that line of treatment, provided the dose is low and the side effects and withdrawal aren't too bad. Withdrawal is one of those "deal with the Devil" type things. You (and I) know it's going to suck when we have to stop taking these pills, but sometimes it seems best to sacrifice the future for the sake of a happier present.
