My shrink is a bit of a cunt and works by the book. He gives me Serepax (oxazepam) to use as a PRN medication for anxiety and panic. Typically I use it once every 7-10 days, and never more than once every 2-5 days. He told me not to take more than 30mg (2x15mg tablets) when I feel panicked.
I noticed a while ago that 30mg is basically ineffective for me. It can help with vague nervousness and agitation, but does fuck all for real panic. Today I had to do a whole lot of intense and stressful shit from 9am-4pm. I dosed 30mg at 7am, 30mg at 10am and 30mg at 1pm.
I noticed after the second dose that I felt totally different to how I did after the first. It was totally effective and I had zero anxiety. I could conduct myself exactly as I wanted to. So I want to tell my shrink that I think the dose he suggested is too low. But I'm worried that if I tell him, he'll say that I am abusing the drug and not prescribe it anymore. What do you guys reckon I should do?
