Anxiety
"I&#039;ve been on benzos for the past 3 years.

I got started on Diazepam 5mg 3x daily for about 6 months. Worked good, but stopped working pretty quickly. Then got bumped up to Diazepam 10mg 3x daily, same results, 6 months later..felt like I was taking nothing. Then my doctor mentioned Alprazolam, he put me on 1mg 3x daily along with Wellbutrin. The Xanax worked GREAT, but I&#039;ve always had bad reactions to SSRI&#039;s. So my doctor got me off the Wellbutrin and put me on Alprazolam 2mg 2x daily.. I&#039;ve been on the same dose for over a year and a half..and has worked perfectly. Great medication. But it does have the potential for abuse/addiction. Be careful with that because Withdrawal from any benzo is horrific."
