Doctors In San Francisco California That Prescribe Xanax For Panic Attacks
(Newest replies first)

I am having a really hard time finding a doctor that will give me a script for xanax. I use to be able to get them from my old physician, but not anymore. This makes my life a living hell. So I figured that since I actually have a legitimate reason to be prescribed xanax that I could go see my doctor and just be honest with her and I'd get my xanax legally instead of having to go on a scavanger hunt to find real alprazolam. But I was wrong. She treated me like s*** and pretty much made me feel like I was a joke, or some addict trying to get a fix. ( which I am not ) All of this just made my life worse. I feel so discouraged and hopeless. It is not fair that all these doctors seem to be nowadays is these people, these self ritgeous smug people who get to determine whether or not I get to be able function like a normal human and not have to be a shaky, scared and nervous mess all the f*****g time. Please if anyone knows of any doctors in San Francisco California that understand that there are some people who genuinely need xanax to help them, please list them. All I have insurance wise is medi- cal, I'm currently trying my best to find employment but my panic attacks, GAD AND PTSD are making it almost impossible for me. Any help or info from anyone will be greatly appreciated. Thank You

Hello, I am in California, specifically Oakland/the bay area. Does anyone know of a doctor or someone else that will prescribe me Klonopin or Xanax? I have extreme anxiety attacks and these are the only things that work. The only issue is that all the doctors I’ve talked to have told me they won’t give me benzos because I am also prescribed Suboxone. Please help me!!! If you need more info lmk.

Xanax is not a good treatment for anxiety/panic disorder. It only takes care of symptoms rather than treat the disorder. You should see a psychologist/psychiatrist for a more appropriate medication.

Never ever go in asking for Xanax. Worst mistakes - unless it's a Xanax dr that everyone goes to. Let them start you on whatever bs they try. Go back in a few weeks if it's not helping and try something else. They may start you on Ativan. Once you get Ativan you are now in for being able to get Xanax, inputs the Ativan works for you. But you can't go in asking for it and never ever say you are getting it elsewhere or their antenna will go off.... drug seeker turn away, I'll lose license.

It's a process. But if you were in it legitimately, it's in a national database. They can see any controlled substance you've ever been on, giving them the pharmacy to check. I had a hard time getting a new psych put to me on, so I started seeing a therapist to get the Dr to change me back to a benzo from, whatever was ok for the month she was trying.

If a Dr fails, get a therapist on your side... still DO NOT EVER GO ASKING SPECIFICALLY FOR XANAX. LET THEM THINK IT'S THEIR IDEA, they like to feel in control. Good luck. NYC has a vast amount of Drs, but that would be a trip here at first, then you can do virtual sessions going forth.

You shouldnt reply if you are just going to treat person like drug addict for needing xanax. If you cant offer a solution keep your opinion to yourself.

I live in your State, and I am yet to meet a Doctor who said no to Xanax, although some had imposed dosage limits. Same goes for my Doctors in Arizona & Florida

Hi there, I live in Maine, I am am also going through the exact same thing as you are. I have been on Alprazolam/Xanax for 30 years. I PTSD, major panic attacks and high anxiety. And I am also on Prozac. So one day all the sudden my Dr. Decides that he's going to wean me off them!!! After 30 freaking years. I found my husband, the father of our beautiful daughter hanging in our basement of our new home. We we're together for 15 years. And then I took care of my mom daily for the last 5 years of her life after she had a stroke. And in the middle of all this hard work taking care of my beloved mother, I cropped up with parotid gland cancer. Which was at stage 3. I had to have surgery which I was in the OR for over 8 hours. Then I I obviously had to heal up a bit and then the radiation treatments started. 8 weeks of extensive radiation treatments 5 days a week 8 weeks straight. I lost hearing in my left ear and lost my whole earlobe. My neck looked like someone took a blow torch it and painful wasn't the word!!! And people who have parotid gland cancer, out of 100%, 80% are usually benign. And of course mine was malignant! As I was going through all this, I still had to take care of my mother and I was so sick. She passed away Feb 3rd 2017. I had to move in with her and everything i owned was in her beautiful home on the water. 8 weeks after my Mom passed our home burned flat to the ground due to a freaking pellet stove!!

I lost everything of my stuff, my grandmother's stuff which were all antiques and also my mom's stuff which were antiques as well. I could go on and on but I won't bore you anymore. But my Dr is killing me. He has weaned me from 4 1mg Xanax a day, down to 1 a day in like 3 month's!! I have been going through major withdrawal symptoms and ended up in the ER 3 times thinking i was having a heart attack. This is absolute bulls*** what he is putting me through. And he claims i will feel so much better when I am off them completely. These a**holes don't give two s***s about people. Just because there are people who do abuse them, doesn't mean they should do it to the people who desperately need them. Tells me I should talk to a counselor. Well you know what?? I talked to many shrinks when I found my husband hanging in our basement!! I am not spending what left of my life going to shrinks and talking about this s*** anymore. I'm tired of it. I am trying to find a physiatrist who will help me. I need my meds back!! I can't even handle life without them. They don't give a s*** what I say and how I feel. I hope for the best for you! Good luck. I'd like to know if you have found anyone that will listen to you and sincerely care. Because I do know what you are going through and I am so panic strickened every single day and I am really at the end of all the BS. I hope that you have found someone that will listen to you and help you. Sincerely, a friend.

Re: Fr33spirit (# 19)

You know very little about me. If you had read previous posts, you would know that I Asked my Pain Doc to NEVER raise my tiny 5 mgs of Methadone script. I have panic attacks everyday and the worst anxiety several psychs. have seen. Lecture someone else...I am NOT a "Pill POPPER" & you're mad bc I caught your lack of EMPATHY.

Re: Fr33spirit (# 19)

If you are speaking to me, then you are dead wrong. I'm 65, need neck surgery but too scared until it's absolutely necessary. I have NO LINING in my bladder, called Interstitial Cystitis, listed as the 3rd most painful disease and Shingles in my DNA and break out 6 X a year. So save your BS for someone who cares what a non-empathetic ***** like you thinks!

Re: Fr33spirit (# 19)

Until you walk in someone's shoes, it might be nice if you would not post so mean. You do not know this man or did you miss the part about PTSD ? My gosh, I certainly wish people would lighten up ..... this is for folks in distress looking for help and right away, you judge them as 'pill pushers'. You MUST be clairvoyant.
