Too bad

[Rodrugg]

I thought anxiety was for weird people and then my doctor said I had anxiety issues because I would always get real scared for no reason and start having what he called panic attacks even though I didn't feel like I was being attacked at all.  Anyways he perscribed me this medicine and I think he called it "clown napkin" or whatever.  Does this seem right?  Is this gonna work?

Bit of laughter never harmed anybody at all. Not often we read of the clown and his napkin. I just doubt it is was a genuine post. Nobody could make such a mistake in the name of a tablet. Just someone having a laugh, in my view, at the expence of anxiety sufferers. With us all been weird and the likes. Then goes and posts the weirdest post of them all.

LOL!    I'm trying to get back in the swing of things here.  Been so depressed for many months and it all came to a head 3wks ago and I had to take a break from MH, but I'm feeling a bit better so will start posting again on a regular basis, soon.  

Funny how we knew right away what Clown Napkin meant, huh?  I haven't laughed out loud for a month until I read that today.  

You take care too, Linda!!  Peace out, baby!

Hey Rodrugg...not laughing AT you...thought that was a very clever way of pronouncing Klonopin :)

Now don't YOU get us going! You always were a trouble maker here, so you, missy, need to mind your P's & Q's as well. LOL
(I keep thinking of other funny "mix ups," perhaps we should start a post with the weird pronuncitations folks come up with!)

So, how are YOU, Toots? You need to come around more often! Not too many of us "old timers" left.

Take good care!
Peace

You guys...hahahahaha....

Clown Napkin...yes, the possibilities are endless lol...

[RubyWitch]

We MUST control ourselves here, pal. The possibilities are endless and the urge is overwhelming but we must act like adults. (Clown Napkins ARE useful when you take a bus load of kids for pizza to Chucky Cheeses, tho!)

Clown Napkin. Just when you thought you heard it all. Weird. From a not so weird person. The mind wonders.

[RubyWitch]

And I have to wonder if your experience was truly "panic." Trust me, if you had had a real panic episod, you would, indeed, feel like you had been "attacked," but NOT by a rabid coon dog, by your own mind. Real panic attacks are terrifying.
And no doubt the medication your doctor recommended was not called "clown napkin," but rather Klonopin, an anti-anxiety medication.
Welcome to the world of not so weird people.

You won't know until you try it and give it at least 6 weeks to work.  Sometimes it's trial and error as to what will work for you.
Don't judge people until you have walked in their shoes, it makes you weird.
