As a medic/officer and being in fire and ems close to 20 years I for sure have PTSD/ depression along with the occasional panic attacks. The SSRIs never seem to do much of anything and while I hate taking them unless I have no choice,klonopin leaves me feeling shit the next day. Any recommendations to ask my PCP about? I’ve been told to look at CBD flower(non-thc)to replace klonopin potentially but I’m on the fence as medical MJ was just approved in my state and there’s obviously no way I could stay in my field of if I was prescribed something like that. Basically I’m trying not to self medicate by drinking like I used to.

I have had similar experiences doing shrooms earlier in my life to the point of I felt normal again for 6-8 months. The problem is the legality for me.

It’s a daily struggle honestly to try to fit in with people. Some days I feel great. Other days I battle with suck starting my shotgun

Thank you. I stray from wagon from time to time still. As far as diet goes I do ketogenic to avoid having to take insulin or even metformin. I will ask for sure about other classes of drugs. I had limited success with remeron but was never upped on a dosage so the effects weren’t the best and tapered myself off about a year ago.

Will look at them tomorrow just got home from my shift and trying to decompress
