> Hi there It was actually 1964 and the first one was Librium. Which didn't do much. None of them did much for my anxiety states until Xanax, and that may be because I believed in it. No I don't believe they've harmed me, but who knows?
Hi Fred,
Thanks very much for replying!
I'v heard one persons report of Librium -"like walking on air"
No benzos did much for you?- even if the dose was higher?-i'd imagine you *may* have been tried on some high doses to address this? and still no?
If these earlier benzos failed to help MUCH? then did you receive threapy with Barbiturates? or other anxiolytics? did this help?
surely something must have helped? especially back in the far more benevelent, prescribing 1960s?
After only 2 years, some Docs have tried to get me to community Drug and Alc organisations for "detox/weening", from-my medical use of medications-designed to treat the medical conditions-specialists have said I ail from.--crazy--
Has this been pushed/sugessted for you?.I have been perscribed Xanax, in the past, but only in low doses: 0.25mcg 3x day it sure does have a fast and short action!, maybe a higher/frequent dose would be more threaputic?
I'd rather take some minor memory impairment,(Benzos) than health damaging Anxiety anyday, or zombie numbness of most ssri's
Thanks.
Cheers P
