Since 1990 I've been on 0.5mg xanax and within 15 mins I could hold a small yum cha cup without trembling, I could go up escalator without having to grip tightly to the handrail, nor did I have trouble swallowing a meal when I sit alone in a restaurant. The doc instructed me to take it whenever It is needed (prn) basis.
I used to be a pharmacology student, but changed to western herbal medicine now, so I know a bit about the way medication works.
Xanax, like other psychiatrists preferred antidepressants in which they say it is non addictive, as long as taken correctly, it helps. I 've been on xanax for 17 years, taking it occassionally 0.5mg to 1 mg once every 2 days have no problem at all. There was a time when I was off xanax for 3 months, no withdrawal at all.
The problem with patients nowadays is, they take xanax daily, the drug continuously metabolised in the bloodstream thus affecting their cognitive function on daily basis, in OTHER WORDS XANAX ALTERS THEIR MIND ABOUT HOW THEY PERCEIVE THINGS, ONCE SEDATED, THEY MIXED IT WITH STIMULANTS, ONCE WEANED OFF THEY TAKE ALCOHOL TO MAINTAIN THEIR "EUPHORIC EFFECT". This is why many psychiatrists are reluctant to prescribe any benzodiazepines ( ativan, xanax, valium etc). The medication, xanax, saves my life, giving me back my hope and confident in my life, physiologically. Spirituallly, I am a follower of Jesus Christ, this is where the inner strength comes, only from one, God the Most High.
May my testimony be a blessing to you all. God bless  |
