i get really bad panic attacks used to be a couple times a day now it's like a couple times a week so thats good but i'm prescribed 2mg xanax 3 times a day and it works great but only if i take like exactly the right does for my tolerance (at that exact time) and if i mistake my tolerance by even 1mg i blackout and take all my script in a few days time and suffer the rest of the month and this happens very often right now i'm freakin' out bad and have no way to chill me out it makes me very very depressed but the anxiety makes me feel like i am about to die i don't know what to do the only thing i've come up with is to have my gpa hold on to them for me in a safe so i don't just go looking for them if i do black out and take them all anyway. ughh idk what to do this sucks

Have you tried different medications for your anxiety?
 
If nothing else this seems like a built-in safety mechanism. I don't have any advice for you other than to try out your theory but this should make you look at it as less of a bad thing.
 
i've tried most anti depressants and i've tried antihistamines and buspar and other benzos but nothing helps me like xanax and the antipsychotics i've taken only one helps zyprexa and it helps me sleep and it helps stabilize my mood but doesn't help anxiety
