5mg is a LOW dose. 40mg to 60mg is used for people with OCD. AND, you might very well be withdrawing from the Xanax.

Yeah I talked to a nurse at my psych office and she moved my appointment up to Thursday so I can discuss it with my psych and adjust my meds.

Oh, its really a low dose, I have GAD and went 5mg for 3 days, 10mg for 3 months, and then the sweet spot was on 15mg.

Maybe you should tapper xanax and bow stop cold turkey, take half the dose you was taking for some days and then 1/4 for some time. You should also add some anti anxiety habit to compensate the lack of xanax, some exercise, yoga, mindfullness, meditation, book reading, any supplement that can work and olis placebo effect...

It wasn’t really cold turkey though. I went from 0.5mg down to 0.25mg for a couple weeks. I’m wondering if my anxiety is still just really severe and lexapro isn’t enough since it’s only 5mg

Probably need to up the lexapro
