Default Klonopin rx finally

I ran out of librium and had big withdrawals, resorted to alcohol for a couple of days to try and remain calm.
After going through librium withdrawal those 2 days I met someone who helped me the past few days with 1mg klonopin daily, i'm been taking lexapro, probably on my 8th week, and I went to the doc, told him what happened, and he rx'd me .5 morning and 1mg night klonopin. Since starting the klonopin 5 days ago I have felt extremely better. Urge for alcohol has gone down drastically. I didn't realize librium turns into diezepam in your bloodstream, it was getting me way too f'd up drinking with it (I know your not supposed to do) I also take 40mg inderal for tremors twice a day, this combination has calmed me the most out of anything I've tried in years. Librium was taking motivation away, klonopin I can take, hop out the door to work/school, etc..

the lexapro seems to be working ok, I am so used to benzos it's hard to tell if an ssri is working. klonopin and propranolol and lexapro seem to work the best for my bp hr and keeping my fight flight down tremendously. my roomate is getting crazy on me drinking, etc... and i'm able to control it with the meds i'm on
