Bellor Says:
I'm tired of taking meds. I started taking xanax and vicodin to relieve anxiety but I want to stop. I just stopped gabapentin and seroquel the other day and I am miserable without the xanax and vicodin. I take 50 Mcg of cytomel and 60 of Prozac and haven't stopped that. I was fine for 15 years on Prozac alone but began drinking after 18 years of sobriety in 2005 and my body chemistry went haywire. I have been a guinea pig for meds ever since even though I now have 4 years of sobriety. Will I ever be ok? I started smoking again after 17 years and I want to quit but I am going nuts! Help!

Hello, Bellor! How are you? I am very sorry about what you're going through.
Vicodin doesn't relieve anxiety, it is a narcotic analgesic for pain and it's also very habit forming. The Xanax is used for anxiety, but it's also habit forming. Thus, that's likely a large part of the problem right there, your body is probably dependent on them.
Have you tried getting a good tapering schedule set up with your doctor?
And yes, both the drinking and age could cause changes in your body chemistry.
