After seeing all these positive reviews, I’m convinced I must just be super unlucky. About a year ago, I was prescribed .5mg Xanax 3/day for my frequent panic attacks. I only took it for two days and had to stop because within an hour of each dose I was having extreme panic attacks. I was not on any illicit drugs, alcohol, caffeine, vitamins, or supplements at the time. Just Paxil and I think ... Show Full Comment

I only took it for two days and had to stop because within an hour of each dose I was having extreme panic attacks. I was not on any illicit drugs, alcohol, caffeine, vitamins, or supplements at the time. Just Paxil and I think some Seroquel. I don’t know why this happened and neither did my doctor, or any doctors since. All I know is that I’m never taking it again. I’ve since tried Klonopin (a longer acting benzo) with much better luck, but my medications are also radically different from that time. If anyone possibly knows why this happened, I’d love to hear what you have to say!

I used to get the prescription from my GP but now I have to see a pyschiatrist who when called for an authorisation on the script was only allowed to prescribe 30 tablets without any repeats.

I used to get the prescription from my GP but now I have to see a pyschiatrist who when called for an authorisation on the script was only allowed to prescribe 30 tablets without any repeats. She also prescribed another med that works similar to Xanax but so far l don't agree. Unfortunatley it was been put on the schedule 8 drugs which is considered a poison. People like myself who only take when l have a panic attack have been categorised as dependent and almost ignored. I wouldn't be alive today if l didn't have access to this drug and l have never been addicted to it as I have a measured dose which I take. It goes to show that the ICE addicts have not only ruined the reputation of this drug but have also removed its accessibility for all of us.

For the first time since the panic attacks and ptsd started I was able to relax. I took Xanax as prescribed every four hours and It worked in calming me down but also made me severely tired.
