Even therapy hasn't worked. I can not get my doctor to prescribe be more and I have taken it for 10 years not abusing it. What without looking like I doctor shopping. This med has been a life line to me.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Nice to hear that xanax is a life line for you in anxiety treatment. In that case, as you are satisfied, I request you to continue with the drug and start thinking about tapering it and stop it within around 6 months. I as suggesting so because you now know the management techniques of your anxiety. Therapies are all about management of anxiety. Great going.

Good luck.
