> Valene what about the famous doc? Love Phillipa
I know he is a benzo-friendly doc. and recommends them for people who are very anxious and don't escalate the dosage, etc. no drug seeking or alcohol problems, but Phillipa I am tired of being so dependent on this drug.
I am hoping they come up with an anti-anxiety med taht does not cause dependency. I don't know if I will be able to taper off xanax completely after all these years. I just was so pleased that a friend of mind was able to decrease her ativan and come of it entirely (She was in tolerance w/d) and she was suffering terribly keeping upping the dose with no relief. She said that Trileptal along with neurontin and nortriptyline made the symptoms
quite tolerable.Val
