Xanax/Seroquel/Gabatril-- For PTSD/ Agoraphobia ?

Posted by heygeno on April 12, 2004, at 22:02:33

I finally started seeing a shrink after trying to deal with my PTSD/Agphob on my own-- (with the help of my family doc and Lexapro/Buspar).

This new Pdoc tried me on Seroquel (what a nightmare) I lasted 2 weeks . Now I am just trying to get some sleep(Xanax 1mg per day) until 2 weeks from now when he wants me to try Gabatril.Ugh.
That stuff sounds less promising than Seroquel.

Xanax ( in spite of it's S/E's) seems like it is much safer --less terrify-ing than using antipsychotics for panic......

I am sensitve to meds . One great thing about Xanax is that my nightmares have almost disappeared. (been on it for 2 weeks).
I dont want to have a power struggle with my doc but I am afraid to take Gabatril.

Can any of you tell me how you have reacted to Xanax and how it compares to the other meds I have mentioned ?

Thanks for your opinions...... Geno
