well the first thing is that you've taken a look at all this and now know that the zanex can be scary when mixed with alcohol. i don't presume to advise you if you have a drinking problem, but if it's getting in the way of the effectiveness of your meds, why do you drink? i discovered i used alcohol to self medicate my BP and that's how i developed into an alcoholic. i abused it and it bit me in my butt.
alcohol can actually cause panic attacks in some people..i'm one of them..so it's like you're on a slippery slope anyway. glad you're going to see another T if you think that will help. small steps toward better things i hope for you.
there are some anxiety medications out there that aren't so volatile as zanex. not promoting one but i do take something else now cause zanex on it's own has caused many people problems. i for one am scared to death of it!..and i don't drink anymore "one day at a time".
keep us posted on how you're doin', k?..
