I was comtemplating seeing a mental health specialist with all this addiction stuff, but I have been trying to battle it on my own- if you have the means... I would do it, but don't put yourself in a bind because of it... you have been really strong so far and you will get past this anxiety!!
much as some but wow was i wrong well i am threw the worst now it can only get better
i think lol i don't think i am going to take the xanax does anyone no about valume if i only
take it at night to sleep i think that if i get some sleep i will not have so many panic atacks and anxsiety? 13 days and counting wow i can not wait till i can say 30 days. good luck to all
As far as the pysciatrist goes. It is up to you.I had reached a suicidal point in my life and the vicodins cured that temporarily until i had made the changes in my life that made me not want to be suicidal anymore. without drugs or with. no physciatrist. but if you are unable to do this yourself, well better go see them. money is nothing if you are unable to have a happy life.??

they can likely help you get to the root of your anxiety and a number of other issues. WITHOUT drugs if it's the right doctor, and assuming you don't have a biological predisposition to anxiety, depression, etc (which most don't - it's often past issues, not dealt with.)
in fact, i would strongly suggest trying it if you've never tried it.
all i know is i quit and starting taking l-glutanate, l-methionine and l-theanine(which acts like valium) and within the first week i had crystal clear thinking, my emotions were all coming back, and by 3 weeks i felt pretty normal again. maybe it was because i had tappered off slowly (1 month) but i had not felt that in like 4 years. my memory had even gotten better.
i also elimanated all toxins going in, bad for you food and was only eating and drinking like organic stuff. if your body is not busy trying to digest and get rid of bad stuff you are putting in it, than it has the time to start healing things that are damaged. my diet has slowly been going to #ell lately and i really feel it. sluggish, and foggy headed again. ??????
I understand the insurance glitch, however, its important to keep calm and have good sleep and rest.
So here I am now detoxing from valium. It really ***** because they use valium a lot for detoxing from different drugs and alcohol but what do they give you when you have become addicted to valium. I took valium to detox at home for alcohol and it worked great, 3 days and no w/d's, that was a few years back. I never dreamed of getting addicted to valium yet here I am.
burningup- thanks again. I do have some good info, and I'm done with the lexapro too. My mom thinks its too 'new' of a drug anyway to know the long term affects. and you're right I do know ME, and I know I need to be totally drug-free...for REAL, only herbal medicines for me :) ttys
