Hello Bluelighters I have roamed the forums for awhile and decided I would also love asking questions and sharing what short-lived experience I have! So really just a basic question to start with.
First I've gotten a new Psych recently and things have been greatly improved since! I had a huge wave of anxiety and panic, although I've always had both; It got severely worse when a lot of bad things (Lost job, No money, and lost insurance for my car!) And recently I've been prescribed 1mg Alprazolam 3x a day but after Gaining a job and finally things have seemed to get back on the upward path(But having extras is never bad for worst-case scenarios!) Although My psych has told me 90/month would be maximum a month. Which leads me to question one
Would it seem off to ask for a switch to 45 of the 2mgs? Basically I don't like the idea of 90 pills. 45 in which I can take accordingly to the day seems like a nicer way of going. In our last discussion He told me to try an stick to 2mg/day, an doing so I will have saved 1/mg sometimes when I need to use a 4th. (Because originally I told him some days it does seem like I need 4mg if its a very bad day, altough it's not often) And that has been working great so I've came to a good spot where most of the time a single dose of 2mg will combat my usual bout of nightly panic/anxiety. And I'll use another 2mg on days when I have an attack during the morning or afternoon.
Ill post more question(s) Tomorrow. Can't wait for some responses!
