I do take xanax as needed, but am scared of getting addicted. My Dr. told me to not worry soo much about benzo. I have been taking .5-1 mg per day. Now I do not know if the problem is the Lex or if I just want the xanax? I have gone a few days without xanax to make sure I am not addicted.
I have found myself thinking about how I feel all the time, 24/7. Even when I am listing to someones elses tell a story, I am thinking about how I am thinking???? If I try to take a nap on the weekend, I will dose off then immediately wake up in a panic like I just got caught doing something wrong. Very weird.
I am not sure if this is depression or anxiety related (I am new to all of this). I would suspect anxiety due to xanax making me feel better though.
Can Lexapro increase anxiety throughout treatment, say too much stimulation? I am not sure what to do!
