I asked my shrink to help me with all these different problems. "Keep taking Klonopin.... all your symptons are from stress..." not helpful.

Its the same in the uk Doctors have 3 get out of jail free cards 1 stressed 2 depression 3 your over wieght .Its there 3 easy ways out of anything and with Fnd your lucky as they will use all 3 against you as they just do not know what else to say 😔
The fact that they aren't trained and don't know what to say or refer incorrectly/don't refer/don't have time to listen (and hear) is what causes all the stress/anxiety and depression for the sufferer and their carers/family.
Stress and anxiety etc are second dx for many with rare conditions, its sad but true.
My PT person is great. She doesnt pretend to know what i have gone thru. Yes i have stress.... "who wouldnt after what you've been thru! Lets get you moving as best we can and load up on self confidence and lower the fear level". The shrink said "eat better and go outside"..... sounds good... me laying in the road... not a good look!
Certainly not the best advice, glad you have one team member helping, just need to find the others. I ended up being forceful/interrupting our GP last week, no intention of being rude just needed him to listen. Everytime we go there now, my son says whats the point, they don't do anything and thinks its a waste of time.
I take clonazepam for my facial spasms candesartan for migraines the list goes on. Ive been on antibiotics for nearly a year every few weeks also keep getting reoccurring chest infections. We all seem unwell in our own ways but the treatment and support varies it’s not all from stress although easy cop out to say to be honest. If you go outside you don’t need to do anything just take in nature if you can x The tremors seem to come and go but my regular Gp have not seen in over 2 years I see the trainee doctors. My quality of life is changing before my eyes but I’m not giving up as I believe there is hope. Try and cut the klonopin in half that’s what I’m doing . Good luck AvacadoPits sorry not more help.
