BE GLAD your doc does not prescribe benzo's. They are best used for SHORT TERM MANAGEMENT of anxiety only. You don't want to turn yourself into an ADDICT. Caring Doctors Wouldn't do a AWFUL thing like that. That is the Big BEEF against OP's. There is no close supervision of the patient which is important if you want to avoid DRUG ADDICTION.
If anyone in your family has ever been addicted to any substance at all you could understand where i am comng from.
Do your best to stick with meds like Effexor XR for LONG TERM treatment of anxiety. They work FAR better but in order to give them an honest chance you have to try them for at LEAST 2 months.
