I have a medical condition which will be tough to treat, and it means the end of radio (for now)

Update:

The anxiety continues to be controlled by the Xanax, for longer than it's supposed to.

It seems I get about 5-6 days of very reduced anxiety after taking the low-dose (0.25mg) Xanax. Then it seems to abruptly return, though not at a really high level.

At home last week, I also had a return of the anxiety around 5 days after taking it. I don't think it's a placebo effect, as the anxiety seems to return abruptly, and only when I count the days do I realize it's been more than 5. So it's not like I see it's been 5 days and start worrying about it changing.


I swear, for 5 days after taking it, I really feel like the anxiety is pretty much gone.

You do understand a medications half life? It's the amount of time a medication clears from your system.
Makes a lot of difference if it's a short vs. long half life especially with benzos
Push yourself one step from the lowest dose, as an experiment, and report back.
You'll never know until you try

Think of it like medication for a migraine. Someone suggests baby aspirin. You give it a try and move on
