@mojo: yes it really really is. there has been an order by a federal judge that the medical conditions need to be fixed in the states jails in california or else the feds will take over the state jails here. they have gotten 2 warnings about it in the news already but i believe they have until 2008 to fix their dastardly ways.

I know what you're talking about! I took Paxil a couple years ago and when I missed a dose I'd get that weird feeling in my body and the "zaps" you described. I actually just stopped taking it at one point, and after a few days I was okay. I don't think it was a very high dose though.
And I guess I understand about the Klonopin. I know several people who abuse it, and they're trying to prevent that. It still seems ******** up.
On a side note, Wow! You actually spelled it right! Every other person I've ever talked to about it pronounced it "colatapin." I have no idea where that came from, but people seem to think that's how it's pronounced even though it's spelled k-l-o-n-o-p-i-n. Stupid people.
OMG!! I'm sooooooo glad I finally found someone else who experienced this!! I'm so glad you didn't have the withdrawal too bad. I was on the lowest dose you can get BEFORE I went in which was 12.5mg of Controlled Release. when i went in they didn't have the CR kind so they put me on 10mg of regular/immediate release and i believe that may have had to do with the severity of the withdrawals i experienced, as withdrawal symptoms have something to do with how long of a half-life a drug has.
And on your side note.......wow thanks for noticing!!
4laugh i am VERY interested in drugs and how they affect the body so it is important to me to know the names and spellings of the brand names as well as the actual drug names. klonopin = clonazepam, ativan = lorazepam, paxil = paroxetine, risperdol = risperidone. another one that bugs me is vicodin. i've seen so many spellings for it......vikadon, vikodin etc........
