Interesting.  It sort of reminds me of a report I once read that for every 5 yrs you suffer from clinical anxiety your life is shortened 1 year.

    Essentially I am here for support and real information. On a journey away from this medication and towards a mindful, present state of being. My goal is to find courage, my hope to help someone along the way. Change.

Oh boy...I am getting around to those other rxs. listed. I put crapalta on the top of the list and have no regrets. Day-by-day, and sometimes minute by minute as gail put it. As for sleeping problems, it is hard to get thru a day without having some quality hours of sleep at night. Yikes! I can't remember when I did not take a sleep aid. Oh yes I can, occasionally I forget and can't sleep at all and realize the pill is still sitting on the bathroom counter top. :wacko: hmmm  IC  was the initial reason I was put on sleep "aids" (getting up 8-10 times/night was not doable). TY for the research FiveNotions-as usual it is very relevant and interesting.
