[in very bad handwriting]

Does anyone know what drug goes in the injections that the nurses give to make you feel asleep?

I believe it's Lorezepam.

I have found the nurses use only the minimal dosage needed to subdue a person unless they have cause to use more. Wait until your body processes it and see how much you remember from the time when you were affected. The memory loss will be mild.

Or so I've seen. It could be something else, but if so, it is a derivative and is kept locked away in a secure location.

Perhaps they had cause to use more on you or they made a mistake. During the day, they are human.

That is exactly what I'm saying. I've seen the transition with my own eyes along with half the prison populace nearly two weeks ago. It changed my perspective on a lot of things. I'm sure you will have a moment like that as well.

I think it's their own mix, personally - a benzodiazepine/atypical antipsychotic combo. Lorazepam and either quetiapine or olanzapine combined.

I can't say I've ever heard of them used for motion sickness, no. They'd account for the heavier sedation than a simple benzodiazepine would cause, though.

...a lawyer who's gone up against the insanity defense, actually. You become familiar with that type of medication when prosecuting those types of cases.
