Cass, clonazepam might be a thing you'd want to look at if ativan is too much for you. Low doses aren't addictive and if you're having (or about to have) a panic attack, it just... makes it stop. You don't feel stoned or freaked out...
It's one thing to tourniquet a wound to stop blood loss. Watching someone literally lose their mind in front of you because you can't help them just makes you feel worthless as a person. Even though you're not, but that helpless feeling is one of the worst I've ever felt.
I wish I could agree with this post, like, 20 goddamned times.
I imagine this is what someone with alzheimers feels like as they slowly fade into nonexistence.

"Arrested is unique, because [whether or not it comes back is] really up to the talent," Hastings said during a CNBC interview on Wednesday. "If the talent were willing to do more, and interested in that, I'm sure we would be willing."

I watched my grandmother's mind fade over the years with nothing that could be done, and I was in a long term relationship with someone who had issues that I could not solve.
Both were harrowing and awful experiences, because there is nothing that makes you feel less powerful.

So season 5 is a potential thing.
I think the writers were originally like, this is totally a one-off thing but netflix was all like, nope, we will totally do more.

... it just stops happening.
Basically the problem I have with Ativan is that for a while I was really addicted to it and it led up to a suicide attempt with the stuff
Now every time I take it, even when I have been clean of the stuff for months, my brain goes YESSSSSSSS GIVE ME MORE
and it completely wipes parts of my memory, like I will just open my desk drawer and take an Ativan with no recollection
which sends my brain into a tizzy of MORE MORE GIVE ME MORE
Every time I hear about clonopin or ambien or any sleep drug and people doing weird things, I find it kind of terrifying. Sleepwalking is so freaky to me.
My girlfriend used to see this amorphic black blob that would follow her around, and she said it was telling her to do things when she was on ambien.
Her doctor didn't believe her so I had to hide her pills because she has this fear of not following her doctor's orders (since it was lorded over here that if she didn't, she might not get a transplant and be stuck on dialysis forever). Thankfully she was on the smallest dose and had no withdrawal.
Whoa. I've also heard stories similar to that. Well for her it was that if she gets up for any reason and she starts seeing black blurs it terrified her because she knew she'd start sleepwalking.
She used to sit at the head of our bed and just rock and stare at the door so he couldn't "get her" IIRC. It was weird.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
my
thoughts
exactly
There is nothing scarier to me than weird sleep type disorders. I don't know why. I generally have no problems with sleep and have never been in a relationship with someone who had problems like that.
I read an article about a guy whose boyfriend would wake up and just not mentally be there at all. He would have these weird night terrors and do shit around the house and start yelling and throwing things at him and yelling at him to get out. He described the way the guy would look at him and he was just staring straight through him utterly without recognition. Like his boyfriend didn't even see him as a human in that state. Eventually the boyfriend killed himself during one of these incidents and the guy had to call the cops and try to explain that he had no idea what had happened.
Aaaaaahhhhhhh
I watched the clip of that horror movie where the couple has the house with all the cameras where the wife gets up and just stands there for an hour by the bed, totally unconscious. My skin was crawling.

Stop. Look. Listen.
don't browse the web or do work while you are watching; you will miss so much.
These episodes are more dense with shit that gets referenced later (or is a reference of old jokes from ten years ago) than the original series ever was.
The payoff makes the attention you give it worth it.

My dog is such a White person in a horror flick sometimes.
"OH, WHAT'S THAT SOUND? COME ON TOKEN MINORITY PAL, LET'S GO INVESTIGATE"
and I'm like "Wiley, calm your shit, let's just stay up here, it's cool. Ain't nothing to worry about"
"NO, I MUST GO SEEEEEEE. AND I DON'T WANT TO GO ALONE. COME WITH ME."
"Ugh, fine."
and then I get murdered.
how do you know your dog is white?
have you shaved it to check?
She's blonde and I've seen her scalp.
Heifer is White.
in that case

Carrot, why are you trying to get into a PhD program if you don't have a master's? If you don't have a MA they're going to make you do that first anyway (and probably not let you in in the first place).
Do work on your MA and walk into a full ride PhD, son.

It's not unlikely. These kinds of drugs tend to work like ecstasy or meth on some people. It could very well be the boyfriend didn't even realize he was looking at a person, and not, like, a giant spider staring at him.
Or an amorphis black blob telling him stuff.

clonazepam is nothing like that at all. If you take more than 5mg it'll make you, I dunno chill and sleepy. But that's maybe more to do with the way it annihilates stress. It's hard to say if it's the drug making you sleepy, or you getting sleepy because it's the first time in a week you've actually been able to relax and not freak out about shit.
Then 4hrs later it wears off and you go on about your business, basically reset. If you're dealing with the onset of a panic attack it just puts a lid on that shit within 15m, and then dissolves it until you're back to being OK. No memory loss, no cravings for it, take it as needed.

I think it's more common in hard science than it is in humanities though

One would wonder what the ativan was originally for, then. Epilepsy, sleep aid, panic attacks, what?
