I don't know if your doctor would be willing to prescribe barbiturate, especially the Nembutal. Boy would I love to get my hands on some Nembutal - it would make all my problems go away. But they would still be there when the happy cloud dissapated. It's a good thing I can't - I used to abuse pain meds and I'm sure I would abuse the Nembutal.
The phenobarbital might be a good idea. I don't know what kind of half life it has. Xanax has such a short half life I can't imagine it helping you much in the long run. I take Klonopin and a little bit of Valium. Neither alone gets rid of the horible anxiety you mentioned but if I mix them and take some Klonopin and some Valium together at midday, I am usually pretty much okay through the evening. I also take a morning dose of Klonopin. I am on a lot of anxiety meds - too much, I know, but I am doing what i have to to stay out of the hospital.
