I can understand you feeling that way. But you know you're eventually going to be in conflict with someone over this - your prescriber or the law or someone. Try to think ahead to the long run consequences.
It's a real dilemma when something sooths a lot of pain in the short term, but poses risks further down the road. I hope you find some peace. |

I'm sorry you've gotten into this situation. I suppose it was inevitable. This drug does something for you that motivates you to keep using it, beyond what is prescribed. My hope would be that your doctors would find you a drug that gives you similar relief that they would be willing to prescribe in amounts that help. Delorazepam is a benzo and it relieves anxiety. Is that would makes you keep turning to it? Your doctors could use alternative drugs to treat your anxiety, if that is your problem. What do they say about all of this?
I understand that you feel justified in turning to this drug. But you see what doing that leads to. Are you open to getting off it and sticking with what can be prescribed for you? What's going on now with your treatment? |

There are non addictive anxiety meds....have you looked into those. If you stay with this you're inviting trouble.
