Subject: whats proper medicine for me? trouble getting to sleep andsleeping too long after xanax xr quit
Author: nospamDate: 14 May
I realize that none of you are doctors. I also realize that many of the
people here might have 'medicine' knowledge that my psychiatrist ought to
know, but doesn't in how to treat me for this problem which I would like
to pass on.
I was on 3mg of Xanax XR for 3 times a day for 2 years. I quit cold
turkey, and since then major problems with sleep. hard to get to sleep,
might roll in bed for 3 hours, and i will get up 12 to 13 hours after the
time i get to get to bed. I'm seeing the psychiatrist that prescribed
it. I quit because the doctor i was seeing at the time, (not now) would
not give me that medication or dosage. I don't wish to take it again
(especially at those dosages), unless its the proper treatment for my
situation.
Again I want to make clear that I am not trying to treat myself, I'm
simply seeing the information needed to pass on to my psychiatrist since
she doesn't know.
