2 steps forward 1 step back

Do you guys have good days and then BAM the next day will be total chaos for no reason? I almost feel like I'm back to day one. I've been on 10mg of lexapro for 6 weeks now and .25mg of xanax daily. I thought I had a break through until today :(

hi there,

I can relate to your situation. I am on lexapro 10 mg too for a year noe and also 15 mg diazapam daily(for 18 years) now and at first it works like a wonder to me. I do have panicky sometimes but is manageable .

As I am a long term user of benzos too which ruined my life , I really suggest you not to take XANAX daily because it is very addictive and hard to cone off.

wish you well .

HEY CERTATE. YES, IT CAN HAPPEN! IT JUST HAPPENED TO ME ON FRIDAY PAST! I WAS HAVING A GOOD 2 WEEKS THEN I WAS TEXTING SOMEONE AND THINK I GOT A BIT TOO EXCITED AND PUT OF NO WHERE HAD WHAT I CALL A SMALL PANIC ATTACK. WHILE IT WASN’T A FULL BLOWN ONE, I WAS STILL FRIGHTENED BY IT OFCOURSE AND IT PRETTY MUCH RUINED MY DAY. THAT NIGHT, MY CHEST GOT HEAVY AND I WAS JUST SO DISCOURAGED. I’M ON XANAX ONLY. I FIND IT DOES HELP. ALL I CAN SAY IS JUST KEEP YOUR HEAD UP. IT’S CERTAINLY NOT EASY, BUT EMBRACE THE GOOD DAYS. TRY DOING ACTIVITIES TO KEEP YOUR MIND OCCUPIED
