My doctor has had me on xanax for 3 months. I have also gave up smoking, drinking, caffeine, and sugar. I have taken up yoga and working on many other things to reduce my anxiety. I do feel a little dependent on the xanax, I take .5 mg 2 times a day. I called them last week to get my refill and they said no more and that I HAD to try Paxil. I do not want to be on Paxil, I am getting better everyday and I will take myself off the xanax when I am ready. I am so angry that they will not allow me to take a medication that helps me. It's my BODY! I am not a druggie I take it because it helps.
Needless to say I found a new doctor but can't see her until the end of the month. I will be out of xanax before then. I know that you can have bad withdraw from just going off of it, but I do not have much choice. From what I have read online.. it is actually dangerous. I can't believe they did not want me to cut back at first.
I just wanted some opinions on this.
thank you!
