whats proper medicine for me? trouble getting to sleep and sleeping too long after xanax xr quit
I realize that none of you are doctors. I also realize that many of the
people here might have 'medicine' knowledge that my psychiatrist ought to
know, but doesn't in how to treat me for this problem which I would like
to pass on.
I was on 3mg of Xanax XR for 3 times a day for 2 years. I quit cold
turkey, and since then major problems with sleep. hard to get to sleep,
might roll in bed for 3 hours, and i will get up 12 to 13 hours after the
time i get to get to bed. I'm seeing the psychiatrist that prescribed
it. I quit because the doctor i was seeing at the time, (not now) would
not give me that medication or dosage. I don't wish to take it again
(especially at those dosages), unless its the proper treatment for my
situation.
Again I want to make clear that I am not trying to treat myself, I'm
simply seeing the information needed to pass on to my psychiatrist since
she doesn't know.

Ask your psychiatrist about anxiety. If you truly want to solve your
sleeping difficulties, be honest with your psychiatrist about everything and
tell her about your posting this message here. Give her a copy of the
question you asked here. I know this may be difficult, but it is for the
best. I hope you solve this problem. Best wishes!

didn't want to return to my current doctor (which prescribed me the

medications for a year and am having bad sleeping problems so i'm
wondering what the proper way to treat sleep problems related to this.
problem is, getting up 12 hours after bedtime, hours of tossing and
turning before getting to sleep. very tired if i wake up after 8 hours.
thank you

Shouldn't assume that none of us are doctors.
If you are insomniac because of undiagnosed bipolar depression, then
the appropriate treatment would be an atypical antipsychotic, some of
which are very effective in the regulation of sleep.
Sounds like you need a different psychiatrist

I assume you realize that 9mg daily is really large dose and stopping
benzos cold turkey is a really bad idea with a drug class that can
cause seizures (potentially fatal) with such abrupt withdrawal.
