My GP is my prescriber & is tapering my Xanax (not my choice) and did not seem open to prescribing Lyrica or Seroquel, I’ve seen that on here for withdrawal symptoms. Would a neurologist be appropriate? He wants me to go to a psych to verify if I still need the Xanax, and we all know a new psychiatrist or psychologist is not going to prescribe (unless they do for someone with an established history?).

I have a feeling I will not be able to do my job (Customer Service Representative phone) & will probably end up getting fired. I’m barely keeping it together as it is. CBD doesn’t seem to affect me, nor does MMJ. If it does, it’s extreme. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve used them together or what, maybe my tolerance is too high. I just take 1 mg per day at night for sleep anxiety. I was also taking Ambien, which he will no longer write. So I’m using Valerian root which does help.

I’m not ready for the hell ahead of me…
