How to Get Benzos Prescribed?

Question by Zassou Enkan: How to get benzos prescribed?
I’m not doing this for a free high. I have actual anxiety problems and sometimes it gets to the point I can eat or sleep. My doctor knows about this but I live in an area where benzos are used by ALOT just to get high so she tried me on 6 different antidepressants to help but they either made it worse or made me sick. It has gotten to the point I had a panic attack and passed out. Can anyone give me advice on how to convince her I need them and dont just want them to get high?

If you cannot get prescribed bezos for your anxiety then you are actually very blessed! I have severe anxiety, panic attacks and agorophobia. I couldnt leave the house without my clonazepam. I thought I’d never be able to live life without a benzo! I started some natural approaches and have gotten my anxiety under control without any drug! My anxiety was severe.. I had no friends, couldnt leave my room, didnt eat for days, couldnt sleep, was always shaking and my mind raced. So I know where your coming from when you say that a benzo is right for you. they do make you feel better but at a BIG cost. Tolerance builds very quick with these and you keep upping the dose, then theres all the side effects, and addiction is a real B**ch. I started taking 5-htp 50mg a day. The 5-htp has really shut off the fear part in my mind, My mind always raced and I was constantly worrying about everything. I couldnt even talk to anyone and now I like to get out and meet people. taking a b-vitamin complex really helps with anxiety. Take 25 a day of a b complex and you will get great anxiety relief. Too much will cause anxiety but 20-25mg will help it alot! Also inositol is a great supplement for anxiety/panic attacks. Inositol and 5-htp have been studied against drugs like ssris for panic and anxiety and have done as good and inositol actually worked better at reducing panic attacks than the meds. Magnesium and niacin are great for anxiety as well. These will help you with your anxiety alot! Taking a sublingual B12 tablet as methylcobalamin helps me alot with anxiety too. I take a b12 tab under my tongue in the morning and it gets rid of that knot I wake up with and helps me eat. Try these is you really want relief. I know you say you arent looking to get high but actually have severe anxiety well I did too and benzos AREN”T the answer. Benzos are meant to be taken as needed not daily. Daily use can make you really addicted and their effects always disappear and you have to up the dose. After I first got on clonazepam I thought I was cured. But I had to keep upping the dose til 6mg wasnt enough. Then try to come off and your anxiety comes back full force. You will wish you never got on them. These natural approaches can take away your worst anxiety without having to rely or get addicted to any drug. I am on NO meds at all and I have SEVERE anxiety which has been helped by this. Its no b*llsh*t!
