I hope things go well. I know it's sometimes tedious to answer questions, but is Xanax the only benzo you tried and it was the best?

Just asking, since it seems to vary a bit which benzos are the best for different people. I basically didn't feel Klonopin at all, it was basically a placebo. Tried Valium but had to use extreme dosages to just feel a tad drowsy. Oxazepam takes the edge off in a nice and nonintrusive way, but is so sedating for me. So I'm sticking with Xanax myself.

Still, I seem to be extremely sensitive to the sleep med Halcion, so before I swapped the late dosage of Xanax for a rather tiny dosage of Halcion and it really kept the Xanax dosage down. It might sound stupid to be on 2 benzos but in my case it was very effective and kept dosages really low.

Now I have some mild amnesia from Halcion so I only use it as an emergency sleep med. Shame really since it ups my Xanax consumption by 50-100 % .
