I ran out of Xanax last night (I've been taking 0.5mg three times a day and 1mg at night) for a month or so.
I ran out last night (around 2am) not realising I got my next script TOMORROW.
It's 10pm here now so I've got about 13hrs (going by average) until I get more. Because I wasn't abusing it and sticking to a fairly low dose and have only been using it daily for a few weeks, I doubt I will get any extreme WD.
I just wanted some tips to get me through the night?
My symptoms so far are sweating (although it's very hot today so maybe not related) and I keep getting mild waves of anxiety.
I have access to plenty of opiates (20mg of fentanyl in 200mcg doses) if they will stop WDs or at least help?
I also have promethazine which I take regularly as I have nausea (due to pancreatitis), have always suffered crippling intense anxiety and panic attacks (hence the xanax). I have insomnia, too and it also stops the opiate itch...basically it's a little God-send, helping in so many ways. Would that help?
I'm mainly looking for help with anxiety, it's only one day thank God.
I have chamomile as well as "Calms" and "Quiet Life" herbal anxiety "cures".
Sorry if this has been asked before. I live with my parents, but they're currently away, so I'm alone all day/night (only at home, lol, and it's just for a couple weeks) and being anxious alone is a lot worse than with company.
P.S. I'm aware moderate amounts of alcohol would be the best as it acts on the same GABA receptors, but I'm an alcoholic, 7 months sober, so that's a big no-go.
