A lot of people is telling that I should stop reading the internet because I am just creating my own diseases according to them . I dont think the same but anyway....
I feel frustrated 3 mg of Xanax is not helping me anymore , juts for little spaces of time. I dont feel the same relief . I dont wanna increase the dose. I dot wanna get into those histories that you need more and more xanax every time . DO you think I am developing tolerance .
I called my doctor far away from here and tell me to but Xanax AP , has anybody tried.
He is a very old Doctor and he dont even remembered that I was on Nardil and also gave just 1mg Of xanax AP . Evrything so confuse .
I do not have internet on my home , I dont have money to pay my phone anymore , I dont have job.Im on a PC chat store. I feel bad and suicide thougths are starting to raise again in my head.
This xanax situation is frustrating me.I have to leave. There are a lot of psychopables that I have to respond but my money is not enough to pay more time.
I havenīt received my Nardil from an online pharmacy it is lost and I run out of it yesterday , this is so frustrating . I spent my money on that medicine and didnīt reach my home adress. I did it online to buy a cheaper nardil but I guess it get losto n the way. I feel very bad. I Want peace please , this is not life , fear fear fear , depresion , no money , not able to work , no job
Tell me something please

Did you call (or email) the online pharmacy where you bought the nardil? They might be able to tell you how/when they sent it and give you a better idea when it would arrive. Also, perhaps they can give you a refund, or credit for the next time.

Dear Tepi
Have you ever tried clomipramine for your anxiety? You'd have to be off Nardil for two weeks before trying clomipramine. Clomipramine can be very effective for anxiety, which is why I suggested it. I'm sorry for what you're going through.
Love
Ed

What country are you in?
Yes, it is absolutely possible and just about guarenteed to develope tolerance to xanax or any benzo, and when you do, you feel more anxious. It is like the start of withdrawal. Withdrawal itself is hellacious anxiety and can be very bad depression too-= but after week or two you start to feel better. It can be very scary experience however. Xanax and it's entire class is famous for tolerance and addiction issues. Remind yourself maybe that "this is a reaction to a powerful drug and withdrawal". Some people actually do much beter once they clean out and are off drugs like xanax altogether. Kudos to you to not be wanting more, I think that shows strength and wisdom on your part.
Sure- don't spend too much time on internet, but some info about your experience is good. A balance is good. They are right that if you dwell TOO much the situation could overwhelm.
A live therapist or group or doctor would of course be better. Sometimes there are low--income places that will treat for free- sometimes you are served by graduate students or as a "case" for med students, for example. At least that is true in the US. I hope you are able to distract yourself in other ways- for me physical activities with concrete "accomplishment" like biking a path, working in a garden, an hour on an excercise machine with music, even cleaning my house, etc have been best distractions for cases where I ran out of a drug similar to yours and was freaking out. Maybe, if you can, even go to a sensational movie or other totally engrossing experience: escapist, but it can help. (NO sad or scary movies though!!!) Best- stuff where you need to focus on the activity- not allowing much room for rumination-style thought.Please good luck to you. It sounds like a horrifically sadistically unfair health system wherever you are. I am so sorry to hear your plight and wish you best. I have suffered very similar plight and have made considerable progress, and that is why I have hopes for you, too.
