Dr put me on Xanax
| Sat, 07-02-2005 - 10:19am |
This is the first time I have taken it this morning. It makes me feel a bit detached and groggy. Will this side effect lessen with time? I don't really like this feeling, but I guess it is better then anxiety. Does anyone else have this problem?
Thanks!
Thanks!

ITA with Sheri Ann. That sleepiness will go away in time. Be careful driving. It may feel as if the dosage is too much for the first few days. If it still does in a week, then I'd check with the dr. Some ppl aren't used to taking meds like this & are more sensitive to the *groggy* effects.
That detached feeling has always been a sign of stress/anxiety for me. Not the meds. In time it will fade away. I do hope you feel better soon. Keep in touch. Let us know how you're feeling. Good luck & GBU! (((hugs))) jan
does make you feel sleepy I imagine you are exhausted
from all the anxiety! This will pass in time as the
others said. I also take Paxil which is an antidepressant.
Take care! Judy
Yes, as your body adjusts to it, you won't be as groggy. It'll just calm you, which is wonderful.
