> It is purely personal opinion, but I favor immediate release xanax better than extended release. I don't take xanax regularly, but whenever I have taken it I get a pronounced rapid antidepressant effect. I don't get that from the extended release. Makes me wonder why I don't take it more often. Even as much as I think benzo phobia is ridiculous, I think I have benzo phobia. Go figure. Anyway, I like IR better than XR.

>If you have pronounced euphoria, its probably good that you do take it more often. That is what I was referring to the PRN nature of Xanax. If one gets used to the "immediacy" of Xanax and Ativan it becomes less valuable for that crushing day when its needed. But that's up to the individual.
