I am with Phillipa, I am on xanax for anxiety and panic attacks and it works. I don't abuse it. I don't take it everyday now that I have it somewhat under control. At least now I know my anxiety for what it truly looks like and sometimes I can control with things other than meds. Not always but sometimes I can stop a panic attack from getting too bad.

My pdoc, I was the one more worried about dependency than he was, assured me I would be fine on it, that he would monitor it. He has not had too. I rarely get it the bottled refilled within a month's time and I can as I am prescribed the xanax every 4 hours. I have never taken that way.

But I understand it you can't get a doctor to prescribe it for you. I have taken daily though and then gone days without it without any ill effects.

Anyway, hope you can something to help. Maybe you could get him to give one script of a benzo with no refills. Which is what mine did initially. They do work well and are cheap.
