I feel like a big baby right now, but I am such a medi-phobe I can't help it! I went see the doc today for my refill of xanax, and while I was there I told her that i've been on 100 mgs for 8 weeks so far, and that i'm still feeling anxious most days even with the xanax. Not panic anxious, but anxious.
She then told me that I should be feeling no anxiety at all at this point, and handed me a prescription for 150 mgs! She also wants me to decrease my xanax from 3 times a day to 2, which I don't mind because I only take 2 anyway. And she said that if I really need it mid-day, then take it, but not every day....well, that's what I was doing in the first place. LOL!
Anyway, i'm rambling here....but WHY am I so affraid of increasing to 150? I hate taking meds in the first place, and when 50 mgs wasn't working for me anymore, and she wanted me to go to 100 I freaked out then too! I think i'm afraid of serotonin syndrome or something because I keep thinking it's too high!
Talk me down please! I was so upset after I left that I had to take a half of a xanax just to be able to drive home! Thanks for listening to me ramble....
