    anyone here on xanax?

    Been on them for a couple of months now due to some kind of fuckin agoraphobia/anxiety issues, doc keeps upping the dosage, started out with 0.25mg 3 times daily and now already up to 1mg three times daily but I been eating these mother fuckers like candy to keep the edge off.

    Curious to hear about anyone else's experience with this shit and how long they've been on it and what the deal is.

    Highly addictive...

    They make you feel really good though.. Don't drink unless you plan on sleeping for a long time...

            I hear ya, I ran out of the shit and didn't hit the doctors office for a couple of days to get my prescription refilled and I'm sure I felt 10 times worse than I did before I got on the shit.

            Just wondering if after a while I'll build up such a tolerance to the stuff that it won't do shit for me.

            First week or two taking the stuff I felt almost "normal" for once in my life... had a hunch there were other webmasters out there on it, this line of work suits people like myself.

            Doc says it'll be fine to take them for an indefinite period but I've heard shit about them being a short term "fix" and it not being a good idea to be on them for more than a few months.

                  I've never heard of buspar, but I've been on ativan before, the ones you put under your tongue to disolve or whatever, I think it's from the same family of drugs or some shit but it didn't seem to do much for me.

                  This xanax shit is the only thing I've tried so far that takes the "edge" off, makes it hard as fuck to concentrate on work I find though. Dumbs me down a bit I think.

                    Never knew what the fuck was wrong with me, always just had an uneasy feeling in public places, some real stupid shit really if you sit and think about it.

                    Not even so much large crowds and shit, some days I wouldn't even be able to make myself go into a convenience store.

                    Just the last couple of years I started trying different med's like effexor and a bunch of other SSRI's but none of that shit did squat for me other than make me impotent as a 195 year old man.

                    Been functioning pretty good on this xanax shit just hoping it holds out.

                        The advice the guys gave you on addiction is so true. Try to lower the dosage, You don't want to have a seizure, stopping it cold turkey, since your increases your dosage pretty high. Zyprexa is a great anti-anxiety , and you'll never ever be paranoid on it. It's a new wonder drug. Ask abou it.

                            Buspar will knock you out even during the day at work for the first two weeks, and then you don't really feel any less anxious. And Ativan is good, but in the benzodiazipene family such as valium, and highly addictive also. You just have to experiment with your doctor until you correct little cocktail of pills to level out your brain and make it fire right, not get mushy with drug abuse. I have to ay I'm glad you got off Effexor. I quit it abouttwo months ago. .I and had been on it for four years. Talk about major strange withdrawals, I forgot the technical name is for it, but you can actually feel your brain misfiring. Well guess what, I have only had one raging angry episode since I quit that Effexor and my libido went back up. I do'nt recomment that stuff at all. Ask your doc avout Zyprexa, I'm doing well with it. Good Luck with the search! Have a great day while I hopefully sleep half of it.

                              anxiety / agoraphobia yeah ive been having treatment for it since i was 16 im 21 now and i find valium works fine but i do sometimes get a lil flush of anxiety but nothing like what i had.

                              ive used so many different types of medication and i found that most made me vomit and shit for the first week or two.

                              i am reducing the dosage of my valium and feel great.

                              well hope things work out for ya.

                                Benzos (xanax, valium, klonopin, ambien, etc.) are not supposed to be taken daily because your body builds up a tolerance to them very quickly. I personally prefer to take Klonopin for occasional anxiety because it reduces stress while allowing me to function normally. Valium is better for panic attacks and major turmoil, but they dumb you down so much that you'll be unable to think clearly and concentrate for a good 24 hours.
