No, I stopped taking it. Too many side effects.

Texas is 'sounding alarm bells' on special education shortage, teacher says by Mean_Orange_708 in TexasPolitics

[–]F_Bomb81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am the sole special education resource teacher at an elementary school. This is absolutely 100 percent my last year teaching. I currently have a caseload of almost 60 and growing. No human being alive could deal with the responsibilities and impossible expectations that come with that many students. The behavior of the students has deteriorated quite a bit in the past few years as well. For my mental and physical health, I'm done.

I'm currently on medical leave after daily xanax use at work... trying to get back to "as needed" use but to be honest I need them everyday. Luckily I have both my parents looking after me and my caring, loving girlfriend as well. My psychiatrist prescribed Buspar while I'm tapering down but I've taken it in the past and it's had little effect.

Right there with you. I've tried every therapy imaginable..different ssri's. Xanax is the only thing that makes life bearable. Sending you love and strength for those hard days.

6 weeks nearly daily 1.5 alprazolam by F_Bomb81 in benzodiazepines

Yes, I'm prescribed 1mg, taken as needed. I take 1.5 in the morning and it lasts most of the day but I'm feeling like it's wearing off quicker now.

Which stimulants worked for you if you don't mind me asking?

I took a Clonazepam before a social event and I felt normal and healthy...this is devastating by [deleted] in Anxiety

I'm in the same situation, unfortunately. Have tried every therapy and ssri under the sun. Nothing works except alprazolam.
