I've been asking pdoc for Xanax for 7 yrs she says no. But she let's me continue with a nasty physical addiction to klonopin, keeps upping the dosage. It's tricky. Xanax is a big killer when mixed with alcohol. Klonopin is supposed to be the worst physically addicting taking people years to withdraw. Ativan was a joke sugar pill for me...

They're all benzo's and will make you sleepy/relaxed. But you build up a tolerance and feel the effects less.

Good luck and welcome to PC.
