Xanax question

Guest · Post by **Guest** » Tue Jun 17, 2008 3:00 pm

I've been on xanax now for 3 years. Along with clonazapam (klonopin), lexapro and mertazapine. My panic attacks are still horrible. Drugs don't work. Hoping this program does...I'm reading with great anticipation that it just may be what I need!

JJB1! So, if I am taking .05 mg 3 times a day, I'm actually only taking 1.5 mg...is that right or am I totally confused???? I really would like to know. Thanks, Judy

If that is the case, that's a rather low dose in comparison...right?

what was your answer i am on the same thing and want to cut back usaflyblue@yahoo.com

This is just a suggestion instead of taking the whole or 1/2 the pill just take a quarter of it. This is what I take and it calms me right down. I don't like taking these types of medications because I don't like the feeling it gives me but the Xanax seems to work for me.

I have been taking Xanax for 10 years, .25 a half a pill twice a day. I found it has definitely helped me in a panic situation. I heard it is addictive. I will not take a higher doseage and I don't feel weird or tired from taking it. I do not promote taking drugs as the only answer to my anxiety. However, I have just started this program and one of my goals is to get off of it altogether.
