I was prescribed Xanax for agoraphobia in 1982, when it was a new drug
on the scene and took it for many years. It definitely worked. Later
on, I was prescribed Klonopin and then Ativan.
There's no doubt these medications work and enable a person frozen
with fear to live a somewhat normal life.
There is one catch though........this family of drugs is terribly
physically addictive. If you can't afford to continue taking it, then
don't start. Abrupt withdrawal from this "benzo" class of drugs is
horrendous.

they are all available as generics and are dirt cheap, they are very
affordable.

abrupt withdrawal is just plain stupid and any doctor would give you
samples enough to get through the physical withdrawal symptoms.

since the body develops a tolerance to the meds you should suffer with
anxiety and panic instead? bull.
