I don't think I'm addicted to it, but I love xanax. When I wake up and want to go back to sleep, I take one and drift into sleep. If I'm freaking out about the end of the world, I just eat another one and I'm fine. I've tried therapy, but it all seems fake to me. Xanax is real. How can I stop this from escalating into an addiction? If I don't take xanax, I daydream about liquor and pot to escape.
Easiest way to beat the need for "staples" in your life to be happy - get out, excercise and get a hobby. I'd start finding stuff that's healthy that you're interested in and focus on doing those. I used to drink just because I was bored - now I try excercising - I'm getting certified to dive - just anything that will enhance your life and take away your need for those thigns.
Hate to burst your bubble but it sounds like you are abusing it and can lead to dependence! I highly doubt you have really tried therapy because your answer here indicates that you really dont seem to think its a big deal.
if you worry about the end of the world find God he will help you
Be ready for it.Stop taking those pills or cut back they can kill you taking so many then it will be the end of the world for you.
Ask for prayer and you pray also.Go to a treatment center
or ask your doctor
i HAVE FAMILY THAT DIED FROM TOO MANY OF THOSE.
God Bless you
Tell your psychiatrist or however prescribed the drug, and let him/her assess your level of dependence. He/she may wean you off of it, or find another solution. If you do not have a psychiatrist, go see one. Most have extensive experience in dealing with these kinds of issues.
