I got benzo sick too one time real bad.

Uh, luckily I ran into a, a doctor who, who had helped some veterans with PTSD, uh,

And for anybody out there who's on benzos, a great alternative is Vistaril, which is like the prescription version of Benadryl.

Now, you got to be careful with the Vistaril because if you take it too often, then it'll, you know, just like Benadryl, it'll raise your blood pressure.

But I was able to get off of Xanax and then Klonopin with Vistaril.

So, but anyway, so, you know, these are the type of conversations that the NBA didn't even know about.

They were just telling me, hey, if you're anxious about flying, which I was, I used to get really anxious about flying.

which we can talk about.

And I think in retrospect is warranted.

That's another one of those conspiracy theories we'll touch on.

But if, you know, if you get anxious about flying, just take this annex.

And I'm like, well, guys, it's a hundred flights a year.

You know, you want me to be taking Xanax?

Anything more than probably, you know, four to six weeks is pushing it.

You start getting into the realm of interdosal withdrawals, which means that you're having withdrawals on the schedule that the doctor is telling you to take the medicine.

And so I said, you know, the alternative is just let me drive when I can drive.

If we're going from Minneapolis to Chicago, just let me fucking drive.

And everybody was like, well, yeah, that seems like a problem.

And I'm like, why?
