My experience with Xanax has been anything but the picture painted by “Addiction fears rise about Xanax” (Page 1, Oct. 21). Before asking the doctor for it, I checked with a friend, asking if there was a need to “up the dosage” when he was using it. He said there never was a problem with that or with his ceasing to take it.
I have been on the minimal dosage, one each morning, for almost two years. It helps my panic/anxiety and I look forward to taking this dosage as long as I deem necessary.
I am over 60, with an addictive personality–food, not drugs or alcohol. I am well aware of what drugs can do for and to us. Give us some credit for using Xanax beneficially and properly.
