UPDATE: GETTING A SCRIPT TODAY. THANK GODS. This was so fucking bad.

A Grindr date lifted my script but I'm not gonna go to the pigs over it which is the only way I can get it filled. Luckily I only have to wait 3 days (it's already been 4) to get more but I am. Losing. My. Mind. How do I deal with this? Stay asleep on benadryl (the poor man's Peterson method)? My dogs a seizure trained ESA and won't leave my side so I'm fucking spooked

              Here's a source fwiw, I should have included this originally. It was not the kind of post to be lazy on and I appreciate being called out on it.

              https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4606320

              Benzodiazepines are cross-tolerant with alcohol and modulate anxiolysis by stimulating GABA-A receptors [24]. During withdrawal from one agent, the other may serve as a substitute. They are proven to reduce withdrawal severity and incidence of both seizures and delirium tremens (DT) [40–42].

                Thanks for sharing! I genuinely was not educated about any of that, so I appreciate it. I'll try to be less stigmatic towards alcohol use in the future.
