Have you ever even tried xanax? I wouldn't knock it until you try it. Its not bad, it helped me and I was also on (actually still am) on Zoloft. Hey if the word xanax bothers you, call it by its generic name

Hi Sharonda:
I couldn't take Xanax so my pdoc prescribes ATIVAN and it works wonders for me! Its something like Valium, but Valium gave me headaches and ATIVAN luckily doesn't! I am also starting Lexipro for my depression, anxiety, and OCD symptoms! Seamoods

There are lots of options out there other than xanax. I love my valium when things get to be too tough. How did the appointment go?

Hi everyone thanks for responding... She said before she diagnois me with add she wanted to make sure my symtoms are not from my aniexty. From her opinion aniexty can have your mind so clouded that you cant think straight. The reason Xanax have me going because when 6 years ago when my D first perscriped be xanax I was naive to the world about the illegal trend of pill popping pills not perscribe to an individual. A coworker of mine swore she was having the same sympotoms that I was having, at the time I became pregnant so I gave them to her (gave is the key word) I later found out she lied and used them for her own personal high here In my community xanax and a type of muscle relaxant are the leading drugs thats harming the community. So i start shaking because I have to go to the docotor then I shake when she mention xanax
Anyway my D perscribe me Activan 1/2 takes the edge off and Im sure if I take a whole itll help for those hard to breathing panic moments. |
