Clive Siu Kay Chung — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 01:10:00 -0500

Banzodiazepines (BZs) are high-potency, fast-acting tranquilizers. Xanax, Ativan, and Klonopin are commonly used to treat severe anxiety disorders. Valium, Librium, or Tranxene may also be used but are often not preferred.The differences in these med

I should be sleeping instead of rambling.

Fri, 29 Aug 2008 05:14:39 -0500

But I'm not because I have been having so many ideas that they're literally waking me up, not just keeping me up, but I'm having all these "dream ideas" that are so good (or appear to be as they're happening) that I have to wake up and write them dow

Day three. Having a little trouble sleeping is all. The dreams have returned in full force - so weird and strange and full of insanity that they wake me up. I do feel a little twitchy, not bad, but there has been some - lets say - digestive troubles.

My Doctor’s appointment was a fiasco!

CitizenX — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 16:00:59 -0500

First of all, my doctor was not there. They said they called me, but I checked my phone and there were no messages and no missed calls and I only drank 3 glasses of wine last night so I know I didn't "forget". They asked me if I wanted to see anoth

I've been an LPN for a month. I made a med error this week...Gave .50 mg of Ativan instead of .25 mg. Devastating.On top of that, I was called into the ADON's office to see how they could help me from having so much overtime on my charting.I'm soooo

Trying something new…

Christine Murphy — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 10:20:32 -0500

Taking Prozac before bed, I have decided, is NOT such a good idea after all. Yes, it puts me to sleep, but I wake up all tired and icky-feeling. That’s probably why I felt so shitty yesterday. So I skipped it last night. Today, I skipped t
