So long story short, been a bit of a anxiety suffered past 3 years specially when i had a break up 6 months ago and after 6 months ago i had a series of panic attacks, which also caused me to stop smoking weed or drinking alcohol because that brings on the panic attacks. but ever since the series of panic attacks about 5 months ago iv bee feeling very depressed, i have been getting very intense mood swings, and experiencing lots of panicky feelings and anxiety and to top it all off i have had a lot of stomach cramps and cramp feelings in my chest and sometimes face. also cant take anti depressants because the give me panic attacks, been seeing a psychologist also but doesnt help much. im getting so sick and tired of feeling no energy every day and feeling depressed i just want to feel like the old me where i could smoke weed or have a drink without having a panic attack, and the old me where i actually enjoyed my life. does anyone think that getting my hands on some Valium or Xanax would lift my mood and help me climb out of this abyss ?
I have been using CBD for 3 weeks and my anxiety is way less!! I love how I feel and it does not have the THC. Have you tried this before??
I think if you do get your hands on “either” of these drugs..you will want to make sure you have constant access to them because they DO help…BENZOs are the only thing that help me..and its a shame Drs are so hesitant to prescribe them to people that really need them.
I told my Dr that I have told my children that if I am ever cut off of the Benzo I am prescribed and die of a stroke they should SUE the Drs for negligence…they have a duty to care for us…and taken that oath…
Ativan is the ONLY thing that really helps me with anxiety…they have prescribed too small of a dose..but at least I have SOME so I feel relief SOME of the time…
Another substitute that has helped in the interim (between my doses) is I will take Magnesium on days of really bad anxiety and that does help as well…Gabapentin helps as well and I am prescribed that also but it makes me very tired…
Ativan (or Xanax or Valium) takes the edge off for someone with anxiety and doesn’t make me tired because I am so WIRED from the anxiety they just do the trick.
But if you can’t have a constant supply I think you will find yourself on edge MORE…after having the “relief” you are going to want it to be constant.
i got pescribed 15 pills , thats it no doctors or psycyatrists will give me any more and its rediclous because i actually need them, i have panic disorder and they wont even give me the only thing that makes it go away
