Can Aussie GPs/doctors prescribe alprazolam or clonazepam?

xanax really only feels more sedating due to its rapid onset, and usually only effects people in a noticeable way if you have little benzo experience.

.5mg can be enough to help with your anxiety, but can't see it knocking you out in the middle of the day or anything.
if you were laying in bed attempting to sleep, it would feel alot more sedating though.
 
Which is more popularly prescribed by psychiatrists/GPs for anxiety/GAD: Clonazepam or Alprazolam?
 
alprazolam. clanzaepam is rare as fuck over here. oh well its always nice to have your mental illness/s temp. cured.
 
the xany 's are used as more of an emergency,or curative than a preventative,they act fast and kill anxiety. But most doctors are quite reluctant to prescribe.a heavy benzo addictiion is alongside alcohol dependancy..worse than opiate and meth withdrawal in my opinion.
 
then its not legally supported under PBS if indeed it is listed on your prescription...
 
Both are on authority but gps can prescribe them, you don't need a psych. I get xans on authority so my doc calls and gets a number approved for 100 with 3 rpts. Youget authority if your doc says for panic disorder where other treatments have failed. Clonaz i just started getting but its a private script both from gp. The gp may suggest a psych and obviously they two pretty strong benzos some reluctant to prescribe so may refer you to a psych, but not necessary.

I'm in SA. Also don't have a concession card but getting the xans by the 100 not 50 at a time makes them bit cheaper but my benzos cost a fortune to maintain my doses, if you have an alternative there are other options but these work for me just no plan to get off them...

Im sure were all well aware of abuse potentials. Dont become an accidental addict, this shit harder to come off than I ever imagined. Thought was doin ok, reducing by .025 mg but now to just scraping a lil of my 2mg's (clonaz). I realize'they' say to wean off by 10% every couple of days but dude.....
 
A bit late now, but thanks for your response Mr Blonde.
My mother is all well now, well, as well as she can be after having a son commit suicide. Sigh

Very sorry to hear about your loss.
 
GP's will easily prescribe you anything you want if you have a legit reason, or are a good shopper.

I was on 6mg alpraz a day from my GP, and nitrazepam as needed. Admittedly I was on a fuckton of seroquel, lexapro and sodium valproate also.

That being said I just got out of a psych ward a few weeks back where I spent the last 50odd days...

What's your main diagnosis for being in the psych ward?
 
Bi-polar and borderline personality disorder. With a bunch of other shit like chronic anxiety, panic disorder and sleep disorder.

Shrinks are very quick to label you though.
