I talk about weed. I have jumped in on the psilocybin convo. I have seen people say they are taking k and even stated I was on kolopine myself. These were discussions not recommendations. I have seen 3 posts now with the most recent being a disappearing post by Solaris about their discomfort where the suggested method to calm down was Xanax.

It wasn't a discussion there was no attempt to mention therapeutic methods or even a drug review. Just a sugesstion.

@Will86 Xanax is a prescription drug used to treat anxiety legal with a prescription. It may not be the best way to deal with OCD but it's common enough. Ketamine is also legal at a ketamine clinic and Klonopin is also legal with a prescription. I'm in the US for the record.

@McDucko Legality wasn't brought up. Drugs become controlled due to likelihood of abuse or addiction. I am also not saying they're uncommon because misdiagnosis isn't either. I'm not bashing medication or their use I am shocked at the recommendation by a random online user for people to go take them or get them. If you feel someone who isn't in treatment could benefit from medication they should be being advised a specialist can assist with that and picking out thr ones that are proper. You seem educated as well so I'm sure you can see the dangers of recommending a potent drug with addictive, abusive, and low threshold to someone you dk if they'll go and street buy.

@Will86 I actually just found the post you were talking about. Yes, I agree. Bad advice. I was more just confused as to where you were coming from.

@Will86 Heyy im solaris, my post is still there btw. I dont take xanax, i thought it was strange that someone would recommend it tho. I think that user commented that on several posts for some reason

@Solaris Hey, I hope you're feeling better. I had to take a call after I read your post and when I came back to the app I wasn't able to find it.

@McDucko No, it wasn't bad. It was dangerous and I feel like my point is made thank you for allowing me to expand on it.

You should have been recommended out of her care and suggested to see a psychiatrist if she felt you needed meds. I've seen a talk therapist for years and I've had both of those things done for me He wasn't able to figure out what's up so I got recommended to someone je thought could. I have bipolar and was recommended to a prescribing practioner for consult. Btw I am still his client as well as one of NOCDs. I wish you hadn't gone through that because it messes with the ones that are good and do care.
