Psychiatrist For Xanax
(Newest replies first)

I have been prescribed Xanax 1mg for 20 years by my family physician. Out of the clear blue he is now sending me to a psychiatrist. I also suffer from severe anxiety and panic attacks. I am now having attacks out of fear of seeing a new doctor who may or may not prescribe them. I know they cannot cut them out cold turkey but just afraid. I know people who are prescribed 2mg. They must be obtaining them from a psychiatrist? Any thoughts? Anxiety is the worst feeling the in the world in my opinion.

REPORT

Xanax is a Benzodiazepine, and the FDA warns that carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, and mood changes.

How did your appointment with the new doctor go?

Keep in mind if you ran out you are possibly in danger. If it gets really bad you must get to an E.R. I was seeing a Psychiatrist for a different reason 10 years ago and he had no problem giving me Xanax although things have changed. You can always try a different family doctor too!

Hi Corrnine, try the new Doctor, perhaps it will work out for you. The worst feeling in the world though is withdrawing from Xanax which can kill you, anxiety sucks too!
