In reply to ques. on valium and xanax, posted by scorpio on October 16, 2003, at 5:11:20
> I went to a psychiatrist almost a month ago because i have alot of stress and anxiety in my life because of an off and on girlfriend(long-term)and to sum things up he presc. me 10mg valium. A half a year ago a buddy of mine went to the same shrink over similar problems with his wife who gave him lots of stress and excessive worrying and the shrink also presc. 10mg valiums for my buddy on his first visit. Well on my buddys second visit he switched him to 1mg xanax. My friend never switched back to the valiums after that. My question is my second visit is coming up and these valiums have really helped me and i've seen improvement in my self but there is still a fair amount of the stress & anxiety i have and it seems the only way to beat those crucial times with the valiums is by making myself fall asleep probably from taking to many. So i guess the question is will xanax do good for me like the valiums did but allow me to stay awake or focus any better?
never tried valium but xanax is supposedly 10x's stronger than valium..i have been taking 2mg. before bedtime and i have never had better sleep. waking up refreshed (unlike with ambien and ristoril felt like hangover) have not had any addiction problem with it or withdrawls when i am out
xanax was actually the 6th most prescribed drug in the country last year. get generic xanax. for 60 pills 2mg. each i pay only 30 bucks at walgreens...give it a chance
