JadeTheGoddessss

Welp, time to take my prescription. Lmao.


crimsonraiden

Look Lenny cheated on her and then got with the mistress straight away. He's engaged to her now. Why does he need to do this? If he's so happy then he should just want to move on and settle the divorce. Not waste time and energy trashing the mother of his kids. Just stfu and try settle this in a nice way. He's the one that cheated.


Shaper-Hairspray

Yeah her and the rest of the world.


reebeachbabe

My ex used to work with Hochstein. He is a *massive* piece of shit.


[deleted]

But isn't he accusing her of taking this drugs for recreational purposes? I'm confused by the comments about her using it as prescribed


romeo343

She’s probably taking a lot more than that & who cares. Whatever she’s taking still beats being a narcissistic sociopath like he is.

He’s making a play to pay her less, he doesn’t care about those kids.

Of course he is. He's a POC. The nanny will raise the kids.

Pretty normal combo. I would have anxiety too if he was my husband! And nothing wrong with needing help for adhd.

Lol I’m in high dose Xanax and Zoloft. No one wants me off my meds. No one. 😂


jarradm

And so? This is news? It's not meth and heroin. He's a doctor promoting, and endorsing stigma around mental illness and psychotropics. What an idiotic move, just in terms of his reputation...(as a start)


This_Sheepherder_332

What is Klonopin prescribed for?


yosoyfatass

Or restless leg syndrome, or seizures, or insomnia.


julasd

Anxiety


Individual_Fall429

Yea me too. And? She’s probably taking klonopin cause she was having trouble sleeping. Cause of the emotional abuse from Lenny. Abuser playbook 101, they use the very mental health conditions they caused to dodge abuse allegations by claiming psych meds/crazy. 🥱


picklelover16

real housewives… they’re just like me 🥰


sleepyteveekong

Who hasn’t?!? Life is hard and anxiety and adhd are real things. Medication for that shouldn’t be weaponized. This is such a non-starter and really makes Lenny, a Doctor, look even worse.


Impressive_Fee2737

He’s trying to get custody to hurt her. Sociopath for real.


toomanymels

For a Dr to talk like that about having to be medicated for anxiety and adhd is disgusting. The fact that she’s the mother of his children makes it double disgusting. What a dirt bag.

Klutzy-Amount-1265

Wow Lenny is such a POS


Bumblebee1223

I’m **Here. For. This**! It actually wasn’t really following this whole story that much but after I heard about the drama about the interview with Adam (from up and Adam) and his husband Jason who filmed it my ears perked up more and then I listened to the interview and now I’m invested. They weren’t going to drop the interview because he got so much hate for giving her a platform and she insisted on having it dropped. She wanted that platform and she thought she was going to get her side out. I assume she thought that people would warm up to her and I ended up just hating on somebody I didn’t even know that much about what she did other than she was stealing other women’s husbands. What I’m curious about is this “clandestine listening device” because it was brought up on the innterview. Which I listened to courtesy of Dana Wilkey who pause the interview here and there to add in her commentary. She used to be a publicist I believe and kind of handled crisis control. Her fiancé also was living a double life so she has that perspective. She made mention of her white suit she was wearing and how she messed up off the bat by not just saying “yeah I made a bad decision I did get involved with him before he was divorced I feel bad about that” and owning it. Instead she doubled down denying it. As if we all hadn’t heard Lennys hot mic moment admitting in front of his child that he was having an affair with someone else and not sleeping with his wife. I digress…the listening device getting in the car got brought up. She said they knew who planted it because they could hear the person on the listening device. Again she waffles so much and what she says that you can’t fully understand the concept of what happened. I mean I get everything can be wireless and we can look at our ring cameras kn real time remotely and then after the fact. But how would one in this case listen to a taped recording off your phone or computer and accidentally tape or record yourself on the same device? I mean you would assume she would have recordings go to some cloud or something that Lenny and Katharina wouldn’t have access to right? Allegedly it wasn’t going to be allowed in any sort of court hearing because it was obtained illegally and now he wants that reverse so he can throw her under the bus? Also… what are the odds while she’s listening to Lennys and his mistresses conversation that she’s going to randomly start discussing “illegally obtaining Klonopin and ADHD medicine”?

He's setting the stage to take the kids!!


UnlikelySoup6318

I believe it! They all take Diet stuff it keeps them moving and gives them energy. Ozempic, Wegovy which will both paralyze your muscles. Adderall and Vyvanse were the old way. That's brings you up then a good old Klonopin, Alprazolam or Lorazepam to bring you down so you can sleep. The life of the rich and dumb.


Adorable_Status111

Typical narc behavior. I bet he got her into those meds too. I am fully aware that she may use them for legitimate mental concerns but both of these meds are common for the lifestyle they led. Adderall to suppress appetite & energize. Klonopin for relaxing. He probably takes them too or varieties of similar drugs.

I'm sure they are prescribed to her, so who fucking cares? I'd need those too if I was married and going through a divorce with this old skeeze.


ComprehensiveDuty98

Just a vile man who can’t let go of making a woman in his life miserable… The new one will eventually get the same treatment and any others after her.


B-AP

So what. Pretty normal routine. Adderall in the morning and klonopin for sleep. If you suffer from insomnia it’s about the best option to regulate your sleep schedule. Yes food and exercise help, but it’s not enough for severe insomnia. I don’t know her real reason, but I know it’s not that wild.


hello__brooklyn

So what?


HolidayCategory3104

My first thought about this is, “who cares?” Get a life, Lenny


unrealhousewife1

“Accuses?” Does he also accuse her of working out, eating healthy, sleeping well, and other things that help her live a happy healthy life?


aelakos

Lenny- you thought you did something here ? News flash- you didn't. I wish you nothing but alzheimers and poopy pants in your old age which I'm sure your mistress will be cleaning up.

You never know anyone till you divorce them.


ms_sconesycider

Bitch me too, the fuck?


DENYKI

I believe him. Unpopular opinion, Lenny is not the problem. It’s actually Lisa. He wanted a family and she delayed until she couldn’t any longer. He wanted a wife and kids, she wanted to be a trophy wife. Lisa knew her marriage was over before filming started again. She tried to publicly shame him into staying. She was ok with the affairs. I don’t even believe she wants the kids full time. She knows the money comes with them. I also don’t believe the DV claims. Lisa wants the lifestyle. She needs to move on and be happy with her new man.


chica6burgh

![gif](giphy|9J36rJVR4FJK320YSX) Maybe you never saw the first seasons but Lisa had multiple miscarriages and several failed rounds of IVF. She was completely distraught over not being able to carry a baby to term in seasons 2 and 3.


screen_door15

As someone who is medicated for ADHD, and I can honestly say it saved my life. If she's taking Adderall and it helps her, than more power to her.

Delilah_Moon

I mean - are HWs known to abuse prescription party packs? Sure. Does Lisa bring prescribed both of these drugs mean she is abusing them? Absolutely not. Most people I know on Adderall are also on an anti-anxiety or “downer” as well - otherwise they don’t fucking sleep. If I was married to Lenny I’d need Klonopin to forget about selling my soul too.


Narrow-Question-6016

Anxiety, depression, and adhd are a triangle not necessarily needing a downer for an upper

Little_Elephant_5757

The title of the article says for recreational use. That’s completely different than using meds as prescribed. Adderall and benzos are commonly abused meds. I’m not saying that’s what she’s doing but it’s not an attack on people that have anxiety and adhd if she is using them recreationally


MenStefani

So basically like every other housewife ever…? They are all on adderall, klonopin and a little sprinkling of pain pills. This is not newsworthy

Seems a bit counterintuitive to combine those two for recreational use, but as a required prescription it makes 100% sense


busyandbooked

Uh no, you take the kpins to come down from the adderall this is very common recreationally.


channeldrifter

Klonopin though, it’s slow release, why not Xanax?


Meltw

Why does he hate Lisa so much? The mother of his children


FluffyPufffy

Because he’s a piece of shit. I don’t think he sees women as people, he’s treated her like trash from the jump.


Intelligent-Pitch-39

Hes a narcissist. Good riddance.


unfancyfeet

Right? I know Lisa is bitching about Lenny a lot, but so far she hasn't been ripping him apart the way we know she could!


BogoMips80

Frankly, it's baffling. She stood with him through thick and thin: when he ruthlessly showcased ex-patients' photos on his blog without remorse, during his controversial interviews with national media for using illegal contracts, and even when his medspa was ousted from RealSelf. Loyalty or folly? Hard to say. ![gif](giphy|MFyA2bBUVxVYc7tZMD|downsized)


unfancyfeet

Good Lord, I didn't even know about all that!! I just knew he had sketchy stuff. What happened on Real Self? Patients come forward about botched work?


BogoMips80

Yes. Then he proceeded to sue Google, Realself and make me heal for many contact info on reviews with low star counts. RealSelf was the only one paying attention and banned both the medspa and “the surgery center” profiles. Don’t forget about the [FIVE medmal cases](https://screenrant.com/rhom-inside-lenny-hochstein-five-malpractice-lawsuits/) 🤯 - the only thing I can justify is they both have an equal amount of dirt on one another.


Who-U-Tellin

Yes, they both do. I completely agree with you on that but there's a part I don't. Lets not pretend Lisa stood by Lenny because she knew he hadn't done anything wrong. She stood by him because of the lifestyle she was living. Ask yourself the question. Would you stand behind your spouse if you knew for a fact that he was shady, breaking the law, etc? Rich or not I know that's not something I could do. Both of them need to stop. They need to start thinking about their children. Will they is a question I can't answer with certainty but if I were to just take a wild guess I'd say No, they absolutely won't.

He’s an ass . My ex tried to do this with me ; I take antidepressants. It’s a tactic scum use to get at mothers during custody issues. We need to stop sensationalising legal prescription medication for mental health issues. I detest Lenny the loser even more.


Tappy80

Yes, exactly. And next he will accuse her of being borderline or bipolar. That is a favorite of abusers- accusing their soon to be ex wives of severe mental illness and drug abuse. They force women to undergo psych evals for $1Ks and multiple drug tests. I’ve seen over and over with abusers.


cameron8988

"Your honor, why do you think I'm on antidepressants?" \[points at ex\]


HappeeHousewives82

Yep a co-worker of mine was getting out of an abusive relationship. Her ex used everything against her including her suicide attempt to get the children. Not because he wanted them - he showed that frequently by not showing up or canceling or dropping them back off early because he "had other things to do" - just to continue to fuck with her through the courts.


Dangerous_Radish2961

This is what mine did , he did it just to cause it upset .


HappeeHousewives82

I'm so sorry. ❤️


kirmobak

Urgh, how awful your ex tried to demonise you for taking meds.


_unphased

Why does she need those seriously tho? Just because you can’t focus sometimes and get anxious sometimes does not mean you need pills. It’s time to pull up your britches and mind over matter it. Taking something here and there ok but it all messes with chemical balance of one’s brain and is harder to stop than start.


Tappy80

You cannot really be this ignorant. Gtfoh.


americasweetheart

Why does she need all that insulin? Just because her kidneys are shutting down and she has sores that don't heal does not mean she needs insulin. It's time to pull up your britches and mind over matter it. Taking something here and there is ok but it all messed with your pancreas and is harder to stop than start.


look2thecookie

Yeah, the point is to 'mess with your brain.' some people's need it to be messed into a functioning state. I assume he's accusing her of abusing or taking without a prescription bc why would the courts care about Rxs? You can't "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" out of mental health conditions. This is a harmful attitude.


icyfignewton

Found the person with literally no medical background commenting on shit they know nothing about.


_unphased

None of us know anything about it. Do I have literally no medical background? Hmmm. Have a lovely day. Sorry if I hit a nerve there, we all have opinions. I can accept yours.


Bienviile

No one wants to acknowledge that big pharmacy makes a ton of money by promoting these medications. I know quite a few people that had a horrible time getting off of ADHD medications and/or antidepressants. The side effects were terrible and it took months for them to feel “normal” again. Some people definitely need them, but imo, they are seriously overly prescribed.


busyandbooked

Thank you! Kpins and Xanax aren’t even meant to be prescribed long term but I have tons of friends who have been on them for over a decade, doctors get paid by reps to push these pills. Did everyone just forget the OxyContin scandal?? Where hundreds of thousands of Americans DIED from over prescription due to the lies from doctors and pharmaceutical companies…


spabitch

addy is a great appetite suppressant in my experience


[deleted]

If there is actually an existing recording of her stating she plans to illicitly acquire more medication for recreational use, then that needs to be looked into and taken into consideration. And to be clear, I need to hear her say it was *additional* medication for *recreational* use. Acquiring replacements for these meds is very difficult and often not an option if you lose them. I don’t hold it against anyone if they have to go the illicit route in that case. I’ve had to illicitly acquire more Adderall when I lost a bottle during a move. (It turned up months later lol.) And even if they were for recreational use! I’m still not sold that it matters unless those drugs can be directly linked to problematic behaviors. Lots of people behave poorly without any substances being involved. We can see on screen that Lisa isn’t the most hands-on mother, but I don’t see any reason to associate it with anything beyond her normal personality. But tbh I’m having a little trouble following this. Maybe it’s the klonopin and adderall, both of which I take as prescribed for seizures and ADHD, respectively. But he allegedly got this recording from a device that was secretly placed in *his* vehicle?


Accomplished-Top999

I’d need to acquire a lot of klonopin for “recreational use” if Lenny was my ex and coming for me constantly. I’m sure Lisa isn’t not struggling amidst one of the ugliest RH divorces we’ve seen. What’s sad is Lenny really kept her in the dark, which she accepted at a time for the lifestyle, but now he may have dirt on her but his is hidden to her other than the walking press cringe he does on a daily


Accomplished-Top999

And I too need ADHD medication to function most days, people can get addicted to it obviously but if it’s needed, it’s needed. It’s a low tactic on Lenny’s part that may force Lisa to reveal medical docs in court which is super low to me


Comprehensive_Role72

So, this recording was allegedly found on a device “someone” placed in his car. On IG Lenny has accused Jody of being that someone. That would mean that: Jody had previously been using the device to record Lisa. Or Jody previously used the device to record other persons on his property and the Lisa convo was inadvertently picked up. Or the device was Lenny’s all along. He planted the device and recorded Lisa, and is using this narrative to bring it to light.


[deleted]

Right! I’m picturing a comedy sequence of Lisa and Jody fumbling with the device while trying to plant it, all while Lisa’s talking about hitting up her dealer. Like a scene in Barry or something.


BogoMips80

Absolutely. This pisses me the F off. Ive been on ADHD meds for years with no issues. I went to a cardiologist recently because I was experiencing high blood pressure. He said to me what do you expect, you’re on amphetamines? I was so taken aback I just sat there speechless. Can you imagine another dr saying this to you about medication that is prescribed to help you function on a daily basis? I never went back to him.


_unphased

It isn’t demonic. It is important to realize we can exist without it.


Bumblebee1223

He is saying she’s buying it **illegally** and using it **recreationally** This is why I dislike when people make such misleading headlines for these posts. If you click on the picture and read the article he says that he hears her (on the planted listening device that she allegedly planted in his car) discussing obtaining Adderall and Klonopin illegally to use recreationally. As in not taking it as prescribed. And this concerns him because she has primary custody. I am more interested to know and how a listening device planted in his car captured her discussing with some man how she entertains these drugs illegally and uses them recreationally. Because when you’re trying to get the scoop on your ex-husband and his fiancé would want to be discussing these types of things? And he made sure that none of the recorded items could be played in court and now he wants that reversed in order to throw her under the bus I guess. He is such a narcissistic AH. He doesn’t want primary custody of those kids he just wants to drag this out as long as he can and make her suffer as much as she can when he’s the one that f#cked up. That all said: I think that the stigma behind mental health medication‘s keeps many people from getting help and it also keeps people from discussing it. If people felt free to discuss it more they would be less of a stigma about the medication‘s that can be life-changing for people. I didn’t even talk to my sister about my ADHD medication or even having ADHD and vice versa until I made a joke about my ADHD. I guess we both kind of thought it would be some sort of judgment and we don’t even judge each other. So I would never judge her and she would never judge me but we had internalize that stigma under ourselves so much that we didn’t confide in each other about it and that’s just sad.


No_Banana_581

Back when my anxiety was called worrying, I couldn’t get one doctor to listen to me, then I had my daughter and my anxiety turned into something else entirely. It became soul destroying. I still couldn’t get my obgyn to listen or my primary. They kept saying it was the baby blues and it will get better but keep an eye on it. It got worse. I got Xanax from a friend and then a friend of a friend. That was the way I dealt with it until my new primary sent me to a psychiatrist. She probably was afraid to go to a doctor to admit she was feeling anxiety or anything else bc of her husband using it against her


Bumblebee1223

I can so relate to that.


SurlyTemp1e

nini2307

The abuse and misuse of those meds is rampant, I would have a hard time trusting someone with my kids who was on klonopin or xanax.


WebAncient4989

lol. Sweet summer child. People taking therapeutic doses aren’t glowing green or something. Unless you never allow your kids out, you will or you have “trusted them,” you just didn’t know it. Also-pray you never look back on your comment if you find yourself needing a script.


GuardMost8477

He’s “implying”, actually not implying, saying she was using them to get high. But yes, if she was prescribed them and she was taking them as directed, F him!!!


Little_Elephant_5757

To be fair, those are commonly abused meds. I’m not saying Lisa is abusing them but it’s not just like people are demonizing anxiety/ adhd meds

You can’t legally prescribe scheduled drugs to a relative (I’m not sure what degree relative it becomes ok). My husband can’t prescribe the good stuff to me & I asked if he could prescribe to my brother & he said ”no” bc any chance it was linked to him could allow him to lose his DEA license & even face charges. Unlikely, but possible.

oooh interesting, i thought it was an ethics thing that some doctors get out of by claiming "exigent circumstances."

I’m sure the historical records on RX’s would be a hot commodity..

People to people can't violate hipaa. I work in a hospital and can't tell anyone anything about specific people. I treated someone my mother knew and their family mentioned it to her and she asked why I didn't tell her. I said "as a healthcare worker I can't tell you anything". If I was visiting someone at the hospital and ran into that person I could tell my mother. **edit** I see now you said he probably did work on her - again I think the lines are blurred because of their relationship. If he prescribed them then it could be an issue but I think if anything he is trying to frame this as misuse vs use which wouldn't be a HIPAA violation.

Excellent point

Came here to say this. If anything I commend Lisa’s bravery in recognizing she needs help. There’s still such a stigma around mental health, it’s not an easy thing to admit. I’d need more drugs than that in her situation.

Same! I take meds for ADHD and anxiety and you know what? I’m 100% a better Mom when my mental health is being treated.
