Peter, I'm concerned!! OK, here's a radical question: Why can't you, for the next 3 -4 days, try to tolerate that low underwater feeling. Like "go with it". Be numb. Be anxiety free. Feel little. Have no expectations. Do not concern yourself about "performance".Give up 4 days and be zoned-out.Rest your emotions????Huh?? Huh??? What would be the big deal about being low and lethargic for a short while?Ask yourself why it is such a big deal? Is there something that scares you here?? Are you afraid of falling into a big dangerous depression? Do you feel something comng on?
Why I'm asking, is that I'm wondering if you should ditch Adderall until you talk to your Doc. (Maybe the Klonipin dose is a bit too high, and you could get the necessary anti-anxiety effect with a little less??? Talk to your Doc maybe).
I can't help thinking that Adderall and you sound like a dependency thing. I remember calling it a "love/hate relationship" before!
This sounds like a bit of a challenge, but it's really meant as support:)
Blondegirl's advice sounds good, I know you have a sense of humour :), so a funny movie with friends might really help, right about now.
You just have to be there, that's all, the movie does all the performing!!
Keep posting..we want to know that you are ok right up until you get on that plane to NY!!!!
