lasthope12, this is only my experience with all the symptoms you have described. I too
at one time had the same issues. I had been on antianxiety medication for years. Once
they no longer worked and anxiety broke through, I decided the time had come for me
to be weaned off these meds. They had done their job for more years than I could have
expected. Once my doctor took me off my benzos, I became clear headed and was
amazed how the medication contributed to the way I thought and felt. (but then again,
that was it's job)
I am a true believer that there is a time and place for meds to be taken along with having
therapy. Just know what the trade off would be. Having a talk with your psychiatrist
may alleviate some of the concerns you are having. Follow his orders, never come off
medication on your own. It might not be the right time for you. Only your doctor knows
your health history and can make that call. xx
