I took 1mg xanax tid for years. It worked just fine. I now am at 1.75mg/day and doing even better on that dosage. I wish you all the best. Xanax has been the best benzo for me although I have only ever tried ativan and valium for short time. Valium is more sedating for me. Xanax works great. Find a dosage that helps and eventually work down from that, the best way to use a benzo IMHO.
Val> I think my next move would be 1mg t.i.d. if my doctor were to raise it. So my current .5mg t.i.d. dosage is fairly low? I know my initial .25mg t.i.d prescription was very low. He basically indicated it was almost nothing and was surprised I responded to it.
