In reply to To Dissipate grieving thoughts... Xanax?, posted by Pluto on November 28, 2006, at 3:37:12
officially, xanax and other benzos aren't supposed to be used for this sort of thing...eventually, you'll need to face up to what's bothering you.
Unofficially...yes, you can use xanax or most any other tranquilizer for this. Its not the best long-term solution, but..I guess we all have to find a way to cope. Xanax doses vary widly, from .25mgs a couple times a day up to 2mgs a couple times a day, which means doses can go from 2mgs/day (or less) to 10mgs/day (possibly even more). Keep in mind that taking a whole lot of xanax can make you stupid, and that xanax has a very nasty withdrawal syndrome after prolonged, high-dose use. Have you tried Valium?
