Now that I hear all of you I'm wondering I may not be doing this right. My doctor prescribed me Xanax for the anxiety which is unbearable for still on day 18. My live in fiancé keeps them in a safe so I don't over do it. If not I'd sleep for the next 2 weeks. So in the morning he gives me 1 mg Xanax and about 3 pm another 1 mg. For bedtime I take a 2 mg for sleep which doesn't really work but helps I think. Cause I'm starting to sleep a whole 6 to 7 hours straight now. I had no aches or pains last night! I eventually expect I will no longer need the Xanax like this morning I woke up feeling good for once and didn't even ask for my Meds till 1:00pm when anxiety came back. What do you think am I being realistic?
