Question

Just want to vent - don't know what to do. I had an eye appointment today. My daughter usually goes with me,or if she cannot, another sister veteran steps in. Turns out neither one could go with me today, so I decided that I could do this.

Well, I was extremely anxious, but marched on. Everything fell apart when the technician walked in. I had a panic attack right in the office - the man looked exactly like my rapist.

I ran out and drove home. I was a mess - still am, although a little bit calmer.

I feel horrible. This man was just doing his job. I could not say what was wrong with me when they kept asking. I felt so ashamed and guilty.

When does it end?

If you are taking xanax and clonazepam the VA won't like it. If you get pain meds from them they will have a cow. I see nothing wrong with xanax. The VA constantly tells me they think the fact I take clonazepam and narcotic pain meds is dangerous. Yeah, it is if you increase the dose way above and beyond what you should take.
