In reply to Suggestions for different anxiety meds, please?, posted by Greg on May 11, 2000, at 13:12:26
Greg--I asked my doc to switch me to Xanax on your info to me. Do you think this might happen to me too?? You're freaking me out. I'm sorry you're having a bad time of it--you've been so helpful to me and I feel so useless to you. The Xanax isn't working for me either unless I take it regularly and even then I still have the attacks at night. Just wanted you to know I'm in your corner and will be watching for any advice too. Hugs and peaceful days---Tina
> I currently take Xanax for anxiety and panic, it's been a life saver for me, until recently. It seems like if its not in my system constantly, I'm having attacks. Its been like this for the last 3-4 days. I've tried to ignore it, but today the symptoms are so intense that I can't. My heart feels like its about to burst out of my chest. I have had my heart completely checked out and it was fine. The bad thing about taking the Xanax here at work is that it makes me real tired and I find it hard to perform my job.
