I am 19 years old and have been suffering from axiety for a while, I finally decided to get help when it got to the point where I was scared to go on dates because my anxiety became so physically apperent. I was an avid drug user as a younger teen among many of the things I expierented I took
xanax and loved it. Which is the reason I am told I have axiety, and I am scared that this is true. The thing is i have kept taking xanax even after seeing my doctors because it is still the only thing that truly gives me relaxation. I was first perscribed
Celexa and it made me to drowsy and upset my stomach so I was switched to
Lexapro. After being on it and talkin to my psyochologist (i am not sure if thats right but i mean, not the doctor that uses drug teatment but the doctor for mental help) after talking to him he was the one that told me that my xanax use as a yonger man might be the reason that I have developed anxiety so that night I went back and decided to take the rest of my xanax which was one bar, so I would not have any more to take and my mind could develope without drugs. That night I took it I felt completely relaxed and was able to go to this girls house with many of her friends with total comfort, something I would not have been able to do with my anxiety. The thing is after that I feel like xanax is the only way to feel normal. I was wondering if i could get some more opinoins on this matter and what I should do.
