I don't know specifically about that drug, but it normally takes 2 weeks to a month for most things to settle into your body and help.

If you are happy don't go back. I left my husband of 7 years (4 years ago now) and at first I was really afraid but I am SO glad now that I stood on my own. You cant stay with someone to make them happy, if its destroying you.

I don't know anything about that med either. Most meds take a couple weeks before they are at a therapeutic level in your system.

I'm happy that you are happy. You deserve it.

Oh my gosh Jamie, how are you even functioning after taking 4 clonopin? One of those things knocks me out for hours. They are a huge sedative for me. They must affect people differntly.

On another note, Im glad that you are doing better and that you are happy. That is what should matter, and like Ingi said what ever is best for your children is what you should do.

How far away from him are you? do the kids get to see him?

Klonopin is not an SSRI. You usually start to feel the effects within an hour. It usually is given for anxiety or to help with sleep. I also take it to help with sleep...just need to be careful with the BFing and all.


Four Klonopin? Please tell me they are .25 mg pills and not over that.

I am so happy that everything is going better for you! It's great to hear from you/

Are they with you? I hope you have someone there when you take so much medication. That isn't judgement, it is concern. For you and for them.
