In reply to What is anxiety?, posted by dmwilmoth on October 22, 2003, at 15:54:58
Yep you got it, sorry to say. I asked my pdoc what the difference was and there isn't, they both are treatde the same way. Lex helps with panic, anxiety and depression and it takes weeks to get the full benefit. Now Xanax is almost instantaneous fo anxiety. I take 25mg of Lex for anxiety and I take .75 mg of xanax 4x a day. Also after I got my anxiety under control I started having slight depression and he gave me Remeron to take at night. I started this process back in March. If you still get into stiuations that give you your anxiety or panic you may want to ask about Xanax. My PDOC says he always has a xanax with him. xanax is one that you don't have to take daily. I will wean off of it when I'm free of everything for a few months and I have been feeling good lately.
Take care Tim
