It also made me angry which was weird because no other benzo has done that to me. I started with Xanax and with Ativan I will have to stay. As for "I Am A Rock," it's interesting how many levels the songs of Simon and Garfunkel work on. You hear a song and you think - they just wrote my childhood. Others hear a catchy tune like 'Cecelia' and think: I like it. I DID like but one of the nuns I had for a teacher said she liked it to until she paid attention to the lyrics and was aghast at all the sex in it. Horrors! Then 'Mother and Child Reunion' is one of the saddest songs of all as a mother contemplates suicide after the death of one of her children. I hope we all get better too but as long as we keep fighting our illness and manage to find some joy out of life then we have won.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03434645623403313401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834155550847307486.post-92005967853586936402016-05-09T09:04:22.558-04:002016-05-09T09:04:22.558-04:00Thanks.

I'm great at stick figures, that's about it. So I write. I hope people will get a little understanding, maybe a laugh or two but also this is part memoir as well. I'm not getting younger and I wanted to knuckle down and put this material out there because none of us is guaranteed another day.

I like the song, but I had not realized what it was about, since English is not my first language. And what you have with Ativan I have with clonazepan, it`s really hard to get through life without it. Anyway, I wish we all get better :)Cachorroshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14527469383300234708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1834155550847307486.post-49964403897045005622016-05-07T04:48:44.424-04:002016-05-07T04:48:44.424-04:00Brave to speak out about it.
