I'm currently wondering about some 'as needed' anxiety meds. Was thinking about asking for some valium, but I don't want to get hooked..only for a week or two, I recently relapsed, fairly badly, and went on a bender, and now my nerves are fairly shot.
I don't want to lay awake with anxiety/be afraid of panic attacks and thus keep cooped up in my house for a week, but I also don't want to trade one addiction for another, and from what I've read in here, maybe I should stay away from Xanax.
I tried OTC sleeping pills, but they ended up making me more jittery because I didn't fall asleep within like a half hour or so after taking them.
Anyone have any good ideas, or should I just ask a doctor what they think?
