Yeah sunrise,
Tell it like it is.....your doc should respond, mine did. My primary care physician gave me my antidepresants but it wasn't till I went to pdoc that I got the anxiety med. I take ativan for anxiety. I break a .25 pill in half and it works for me. Don't need it too often, but when I do, it works. I have also taken xanax but prefer the ativan although I hear xanax stays in your body less amount of time.
Both xanax and ativan are addictive from what I hear.
I hope you feel better soon. Take gentle care.
