I have Multiple Sclerosis, PTSD and ADD. I 'm prescribed Diazepam 'as needed'. I don't touch it unless I feel like I'm about to explode and lash out. The feeling of emotional detachment is way too easy to get addicted to; at least, it is for me.
In the 50's and 60's the house wife took valium like candy. Doctors prescribed it like candy. The Rolling stones had a song and they sang about "mother's little helper". That was this drug valium or it's brand name diazepam. Turn into a zombie like state especially at high doses if you can stay awake.
I was out on a walk when a couple of kids with a Bible came running up to me. They asked me if I believed in God. I looked at them and asked, have you ever heard of Ren?
Ren talked about Valium on the Zach Sang Show. It might have been prescribed when he was misdiagnosed as Hyper Cycling Bipolar. He had horrible withdrawal symptoms when he went off the drug. He isn't fond of that drug. When I hear "Chalk Outlines" I think of this drug and the effect it has on a person feeling dead inside. Thank you for your reaction.
It’s what the docs shoved his way when he was mis-diagnosed with various anxiety/mental issues.. prior to finally Lyme disease. Be grateful you’ve not been in a situation where it was suggested for either of you. Thinking often of Ren these days.. Great reaction, thank-you for sharing!!
Great reaction loved the attempts at pronouncing it with cartoons He hasn't taken this one recently for all the reasons in the song Because the Lyme disease and Bartonella have survived and made a reappearance the doctors are nuking his system with strong antibiotics. He is confined to bed again because they have very severe side effects. So kill to cure at the moment is the only recourse to return him to as normal a life as possible
The beginning with all the windows and noise then the zoom into Ren and it goes quiet there for a second. In my opinion I think Ren did that to visually and audibly represent when the drug (diazepam) hits/kicks in. He’s so beyond intelligent and creative. I can’t stop thinking about how he’s going. I honestly wish I could take all the pain and sickness away from him I’d take it myself that’s how strongly I feel he deserves a much easier healthier more normal life. Lots of love guys ❤
That muted guitar seems perfect for representing the depressant effect of the drug. Ren is a genius. Thanks for your reaction. Enjoyed watching you learn something new. ❤
I've only ever taken diazepam for 2 weeks or so after finding my mum dead in bed. It took the edge of enough to get me through the funeral but I was a bit of a zombie emotionally. I have P.T.S.D., M.E. & auto-immunity so I really relate to Ren's lyrics and being a voice for those of us with conditions that make us feel discarded and negated by the medical profession. Doctors have tried to recommend diazepam again but I'd rather deal with occasional flashbacks and panic than be a numbed version of myself. Hope Ren gets over his current health relapse. 🙏 🏴

I am really curious to know how the rest of the conversation went?
@WyoDreamer I told them Ren brings people together, just as religion does.
@@ketchum.micole I hope they checked him out! 🙂
Diazapam AKA Valium which im sure you've heard of. Mellows you out.. kinda like a sedative. Used a lot for anxiety.
Ren is one of a kind ❤

The song almost mimics the effects of the drug, Valium had its era of infamy in the lineage up to opioids today.
Yes! Especially the solo, and I've been addicted to benzodiazepines in the past and know very well how diazepam makes you feel.
Having to take 100 pills every day must be awful for Ren. He's in my thoughts every day, sending positive healing vibes.

A heavy one, you can see in the animation version of Ren he was in a dark place
Count yourself lucky that you don't know what diazapam is.

Love this one

One of my favorites song 🎧 (can’t decide which one actually is, mood dependent I guess)
It is used for anxiety, muscle spasms and seizures, and restless legs and tinnitus. It is addictive.
