Insight: Eating vast quantities of food is a self-medicating sedative.  It dosn't help you feel better, but it does help to tone down the fight or flight response.  Hense my desire to go to McDonalds and eat the highest calorie itmes on their menu.  I will go to Senate instead to get a chicken pita.My breathing is a little better now, but I'm still holding my breath too much.  I took another half a Klonopin and it seems to be helping a little finally.  Better life through prescription medications.  Sigh.
