Hi I was diagnosed a few years ago and given an antidepressant plus ativan. Prior to that I had been using xanax for years after stockpiling it...i finally got to a place where i rarely took it but carried it just in case i had an attack. I lost my xanax dealer and once i ran low i went to the doc. I was so edgy sitting in the office palms sweating and shaking that he didnt need to see much more. Ran out of the scripts awhile ago but got scared to go back because I almost got denied life insurance due to it. So now im hoping staying completely substance free will lessen the anxiety, if not i hope to maintain at least till i can get more life insurance and then i will be back to the doctor. Anxiety is a huge relapse trigger for me and ive got lots of it. For me it tends to be worst upon waking up. Glad I found the anxiety specific room here this is great!
