I’m reading such hopeful stories about Xanax treating and working for depression. My doctor will not give this to me for every day use. I’m frustrated !
How to get my doctor to prescribe me Xanax for every day use?

I am about ready to switch back to Xanax myself. I'm currently taking Ativan but its barely working. Just got info on a psychiatrist down here which I will probably see before much longer.My family dr is tired of trying me on different antidepressants that side effects are too horrible to stay on. The ones ( and I have been on numerous ones in 25 years) that either just quit working or I have an allergic reaction to them that sends me to the ER.
It's time for you to find a psychiatrist that will listen to you. My anxiety is through the roof.
You can always message me when you need to talk or vent. I'm semi retired. I dont go back to work till mid Oct and work through March i get 25 hours a week. i work and live in an a resort for northerners to come to during the winter months here in South Texas. Please let me know what's happening with you.
Thanks for your reply. I’m in the same boat, Xanax works great for me. But then again, I don’t want to take to much because of the addictiveness. How many mg were you on? The most I take now is 0.25mg and it calms me right down.
Your asking how to get your doctor to Rx you Xanax for daily use AFTER he refused? Common sense would dictate that if he said NO, he is going to continue to say NO.
Again, using common sense You go find another doctor, preferably a psychiatrist. And if he won’t, then you look for another. This is not rocket science. There are plenty or doctors that are willing to Rx benzos for daily use.
