Question: If my depression is lessened why do i still have horrible anxiety?
Answers:
my depression and anxiety have always been linked. i can only share my experience as i would never presume to know the best treatment option for you. i had generalized anxiety disorder most of my young adult life, it manifested itself more as depression early on, but that over time manifested more as anxiety. my therapist put me on seroquel and that balanced me out in about 2 weeks. your doctor may not believe xanax is the best treatment option for you as xanax seems to be prescribed more for acute panic/anxiety episodes, and not for a generalized anxiety state. good luck to you and i hope you find the treatment that you need.
xanax type meds help all anxiety, doc sounds a bit crazy or perhaps he is addicted to xanax himself
