Met with my neurologist yesterday, gonna stop taking Requip.
It takes care of some of the little symptoms of my Tourette's that Klonopin doesn't, but it's not worth this side-effect...

"You should be careful until you know if Requip affects your ability to remain alert while doing normal daily activities, and you should watch for the development of

Wow, it was fucking insane. I can't wait to be COMPLETELY off of this shit.

Did you ever fall asleep during sex (while on the drug)? Cuz I could have used that excuse several years ago...

I'm just sayin...

[benchilada]

I refuse to comments on the grounds that YES.

Not sex, per se, but things leading up to sex, if it happened at night.
Apparently requip makes the drowsiness from other drugs EVEN WORSE.

"I refuse to comment on the grounds that YES" has just become my new favorite line. It just beat out "If you'd stop being such an fucking idiot, i wouldn't have to hate you".
Thank you, and congratulations.

I miss you, lover...

I like the tag "You could fall asleep while doing normal". I think I've nodded off while doing him once or twice too.

My brother takes Klonopin, and it makes him drowsy, which is saying something since he also takes Ativan and a couple other things, each of which could knock out a horse. If you can take Klonopin and Requip makes you tired...DAMN.

Just make sure to quit it carefully, if/when you do. Klonopin withdrawal, even minor withdrawal, has been known to cause seizures.

Klonopin is the only pill that's ever really dealt properly with my Tourette's. I've come to accept its sleepiness and that I'll be on it until I die.

Yeah, the daytime sleepiness thing is a total BITCH when you're driving! At least you had the good sense to stop and get out and walk around... some of us have not been so bright at times. Its never good when you feel the car on the shoulder of the road and realize you dont remember the last 10 miles!

Glad you're getting off of that stuff.

Thank you Ben, you have just added one more item to my arsenal...

Do you take Requip by chance? (insert eating disorder inspiring comment here)

Of course I only reserve moments of serious psyche damage for those special people that are seriously deserving of the full attention of my nastier disposition. Luckily for my self-worth they are few and far between.

Yer a dick. A loveable dick.

Wait, I didn't mean it like that.
