Really Bad Panic Attacks and Drug Addiction?
Question by Sarah: Really bad panic attacks and drug addiction?
A little over a year ago I got super bad attacks and was prescribed benzos (Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, Restoril, etc.) In a short time I started abusing them. Majorly. Enough to be in NA now. But today I was in the car and started to get a major panic attack to where I could barely drive. So I took two Valium and smoked some pot. But now I am afraid for tomorrow that I will have to go to a far away ER just to get some more because I have been blacklisted nearby. And I don’t have a psychiatrist that would ever in his right mind Prescribe them to me… But the anxiety is so bad I don’t know what else I could do and still be able to leave my house.. What should I do?

In my state, free or near-free rehab programs are funded through the Medicaid program. How that works exactly may vary by state. Try checking with your states Dept. of Mental Health (or equivalent) — drug and alcohol abuse are considered mental health issues.

Answer by ashicare4u
Many teenagers will have some experience with alcohol and other drugs. In fact, drug use among adolescents is much more common than parents realize. About one in six persons between the ages of 13 to 17 years old has used marijuana. Nearly two-thirds of all American young people try an illegal drug before they finish high school. Alcohol and nicotine (in cigarettes) are the most commonly used drugs by teenagers. Teenagers who smoke and drink during their early teens are the ones most likely to begin to use other illegal drugs later.
