Thank you Gabbix2. I have been wondering about this. I have experienced similar problems with Xanax in the past. I have been trying to watch how many I'm taking -- and when -- but honestly, since this crazy saga with Paul has unfolded, and caused so many ups and downs, over the summer, I've lost track. Some days I use none. Some days I'll use one or two (.25s), some days I'll use three all at once (for sleep), but -- ack? I can't know for sure. I do know I get 60 a month, and so far I've still got some left ....
I am using Serzone for sleep. I can take up to four .25s, which I've done tonight (I should be writing in Psycho-Babble with this discussion, but it's difficult to keep the conversation going with movement around the different boards). I am still feeling creepy .... Maybe it is the Xanax withdrawal. I was thinking of taking a Xanax or two tonight -- but will opt out.
I wonder what to do then?
If not Xanax, alcohol?
That sounds horrible, but I wasn't kidding. Hmmmm. Om ah ra pa tsa na dhi! I need to get back to center.
And I'll have to get back on P-Babble to see what people recommend, and call my prescribing nurse on Tuesday. Eeps. Fallsfall, I hope we can both hang in there until then. In the meantime, as always, I am so grateful for this place to write!
I am sorry, btw, my posts are so long. I used to be a regular on OpenDiary.com ... but seemed to have lost all my readers -- and as so many of my issues are psych-related, this is a much better fit.
Many thanks for your advice and care.
