Xanax

I was weaned off xanax back in Dec 2010 and have been off for several months, but I am going nuts...having lots of symptons of severe anxiety and so overwhelmed. I feel like I need to be back on them. I have and am on vistaril and a medicine for high blood pressure but I cant do anything. I worried and freaked out now in social settings. My doc says Im strong enough not to be on them. I am freaking out....any suggestions???
And I was on them 8 years.
thanks

When you get off a certain medicine, your mind and body will take time to adjust. Best thing is to talk to the doctor again and explain what you are going through. This way you will feel more comfortable. God bless you.

dear blissfully, i'm so sorry hun that you are struggling with your anxiety. may i suggest that you look up nami.org as there may be a chapter with meetings in your areo with folks suffering from anxiety as well as other ilnesses of this nature. i have several family members as well as myself that have drawn great benefit from nami.....there is also lots of info, resources and support on the website. hope your feeling better soon hun
