not another AD..............

hi all...just an update...the Xanax works great....when i feel,"over the edge" with anxiety,or feel like having a drink...I take one,and relax for an hour or so,i feel so much better.
Went to the doctor again on tuesday,to get new Rx,and he wrote me a Rx for Paxil,to take in addition to my 225 mg of Effexor...He doesn't want me to feel like I need to take a Xanax occasionally..makes no sense to me..and i don't want to take another daily medication.I'd rather take the Xanax only when i need to.
going to talk to my therapist about it today.I know i still suffer from anxiety,but i'd rather do it with less(vs more) medication and more therapy.My doc has always been too quick to write prescriptions anyway...hope you all are well today.KT
