Can you control yourself not to do it again, and to only take your normal dose? If not, you need to let your pdoc know you're struggling with your emotions and resisting taking more meds than you're supposed to.

Do you have that much extra medicine? Are you skipping a lot of doses? Or would you run out soon?

@Maven
I guess I could have died. Another pill, another swig of alcohol and who knows what happens. I don't know what a fatal dose of Xanax is.

I obviously can't control myself

It's kind of embarrassing. I talk with my pdoc about everything pretty openly and that's why I was struggling if I should tell him. I was just too worried he would pull my Xanax script. I've been on it a long time and I'm sure I'd have to go through detox or terrible withdrawls.

I don't have extra meds. Boy was I hurting for the rest of the month until I was due for a refill.
