Anxiety
"I have been diagnosed with both Dysautonomia and GAD. I cannot take SSRI&#039;s as they throw me into an extreme panic state starting with pill one. I finally gave in and accepted Xanax from my doctor. My dosage is 0.05 3 times a day. I never take the prescribed dose but rather 1/2 pill in the morning, daytime if needed and I rarely take at night. My life has done a complete turnaround. I have energy again, I&#039;m not so tense, snappy or experiencing the extreme anxiety that would peak at around 2pm. I&#039;m careful to take as I need, and while doctors may not like prescribing it, the truth is many of us will be on medication forever. I&#039;ve found something that doesn&#039;t feel like medication, I just feel like me."
