I have anxiety also and I travel internationally. The anxiety on the front end of a trip is always there and I use a benzo when I need it. I don't imagine the anxiety will ever go away completely but it won't kill me either. Once I get home I am always glad I went and had the experience.
Bon Voyage!  |
Thank you! I actually have Ativan, except it doesn't work well for me anymore (barely helps at all, actually) I had a Dr. (years ago) that put me on a 3mg a day regiment (I know, totally not the way it was supposed to be used) I was young and I thought it was helping, I got off of it finally, but now it only helps in large doses (2mg or more) and even then, it's barely noticeable. I'm thinking about mixing 1mg of Ativan and throw in an Antihistamine with it (I've already asked my Dr. about it and got the OK to mix them in minimal doses) That has helped me with anxiety in the past, so I'm hoping it'll help me with this.
