I had uncontrollable lip pressing, mental angst and I had just got done meditating for 20 minutes to no avail. I was on the verge of taking a Klonipin when my ex gf told me “no”. “Put on some relaxing classical piano music, light a scented candle, drink some herbal tea, and lower all the lights instead”. So , I did all that and my anxiety went away like magic. Then, I did yoga and got even more relaxed. No need for Klonipin.

Good for you.
I grew to rely on xanax way too much. Stopped it abruptly and had a gran mal. That really was a wake up for me. After that I titrated off the stuff and been over ten years now since I needed it.
I still get anxiety but I deal with it way better!

No can’t stop this stuff abruptly. Thanks for the reminder. I’m on a small dose anyway.

no benzos for me …my pdoc doesn’t allow them…I cope better with just slowed breathing and focus on something in the room…glad you beat the need.
