What Medication will a Doctor give a 20 year old to Relax???

Question

I'm not a drug addict and I drink maybe once a month. I just am so hyped up and spazzy I can't get my work done well and can't concentrate at school. I don't want to change my personality because I like who I am. I just need to take pills possibly sometimes so I can help other at work and not flip from one thing to another. I always work like twice as fast as other people but not always the best lol. Any help I would appreciate and would a doctor be hesitant to prescribe Xanax or something to a 20 year old?

Answer 1

You will not receive an RX for anything.  You're like everybody.  Deal with it.  You are not special.---I just read your add on.  Admit yourself to a psyche ward.---sometimes they give good drugs in a psyche ward.

Answer 2

You do sound like you're dealing with a serious problem. However, Xanax isn't the answer.

Possiblity #1 : anxiety, just like you said. There are much better meds for long term anxiety that benzos.

#2 : Mania : This is the "up" part of bipolar disorder.

If you really want to get better, see your doctor and ask he/she what they think about the 2 possibilites. Don't just say "I want Xanax."

Answer 3

Eazy, since you're thoughts are controlling who you are and what you're doing, it has become a problem.  Good on you for acknowledging the situation.  That's a big step and is heading in the right direction.

Obviously you wouldn't take life at breakneck speed if you didn't feel as though you had to.

I don't know about Xanax - some doctors might or they might have another alternative to suggest first.  You do need something to help slow you down a bit so you can take life at a better pace.

Exercise is a great suggestion and may be one you can try before and after school.  Give it a go - it won't hurt to try.

All the best to you. :-)

P.S. Just disregard cutting comments - it doesn't help anyone and they can get high blood pressure over their answers if they want.

Answer 4

ehh... go for some weed.... always works

Answer 5

Any doctor that prescribed xanax to a 20 year old is crazy, if you are getting things done and you are just spazzy, welcome to life.  to many people are pill dependent now days.

Answer 6

he'd probably ask if you eat a lot of sugar or drink alot of soda.  if you can cut that stuff out, go for a run or long walk in the mornings and/or evenings.  that will produce alot of natural chemicals that are usually stuffed in those pills.

Answer 7

Weed.  Its fantastic!
