The most reputable panic anxiety sites on the internet recommend the use of benzos as a first line treatment for anxieties. Keep in mind the big rush to use the ssri's is that the patents have not run out on these drugs and the pharmacuetical reps are pushing them down the medical establishments throats. I have personally used xanax without any of the rebound effects or other negative comments you hear or read about. It is by the far the most effective drug for panic and anxiety. I am on the same dose I have always been on. If you look in the websites like tapir or anxieties.com you will see that the people that suffer from this disabeling problem have the greatest success with benzos. Without all the side effects of the ssris. The purist will shout from the mountain tops that you are not getting to the main chemical imbalance with benzos.....horse crap I have tried all the ADs including tricyclics they all made me a basket case or unable to perform sexually not to mention I felt like a damned robot. I have been more stoned out on a good ssri than any amount of xanax will ever do. You will see once the patents on the ssris run out and the next batch of wonder drugs come up we will hear how the ssris are addicting or the ssris are not going to fix the root chemical cause the way the new drugs will. Ya see my xanax costs under 30 bucks per month and my celexa used to cost me 80 bucks a month. The studies and I mean the good non biased non drug company funded studies show ssris to be quite ineffective for panic and social aniety disorder if you search the net long enough you will find them. When you go to your doctors office or pdocs look around at all the literature in the waiting room you will see no point of sale or brochures for non patented protected drugs....why because the drug reps and companies make far less money on them....When is the last time you saw an Elavil brochure in a doctors office. So be carefull everything you hear about the "big bad benzos" is more market driven than concern for your well being..................Gil
