Hi Milo100 & Oorian Thank you for your input and empathy. Both of your experiences sound like a truly horrible thing to go through and come back from .
I was only thinking the same thing myself Milo100 , re years back and people being chucked into hospitals and labelled as mad. How very , very sad.
Milo- just curious - you mentioned sometimes you take the Ativan when you feel the adrenaline surge coming ; does it quickly settle that fight or flight response for you??
