I took Xanax for a while. I did not become addicted. It helped me.

My daughter had been taking Xanax for several years for manic depression- I really don't know what they call it now, perhaps it is part of the great swath of disorders that is subsumed under the rubric of Bipolar. After she started taking D3 supplements she dropped the xanax and has had no M-D issues since.

Xanax for depression is foolish. My daughter was an emotionless drone while she was on it. She did not experience the elations and deep depressions any more but she felt pretty much nothing. I started her on the D-3 whose anti depression effects I discovered when I sent a Việt friend a year's supply to relieve her of her near constant flu/colds. It did that and I saw within a month by her emails that she had evened out of her previous severe manic depression. Now she does not take the d-3 but she makes a point of getting some sunshine daily. When the sky is overcast for a few weeks as it was through mid January to the end of February this year the M-D cycle reappears and I have recently sent her a stock of D-3 to hold in reserve for those times.

I took Lemmon 714 for awhile, it helped me and I didn’t become addicted.

Smoked PCP, Angel Dust, Killer Weed and that sh*t is messed up.

Never, and I mean Never go 4-Wheeling on PCP.

However, I did ace my Geometry test.

“I took Xanax for a while. I did not become addicted. It helped me.”

Same for me. I had panic and anxiety attacks after my daughter and only child died. Xanax helped me, and I did not become addicted. It also helped when my father, brother and husband died — all within three years of my daughter’s death. I wish people here would not judge others on what drugs they take and why. If other FReepers can manage to get through the deaths of all of their family members in three years without drugs, more power to you. I could not.
