Hypertension And Anxiety

[gator_mclusky]

TweetI had a quack doctor that got me dependant on Xanax. They are the most addictive of all the Benzos. I now only take a Klonopin @ 1mg when I feel anxious. Ativan and Kloopin are very similar and less adictive.

Never had the high BP so I cant comment on that one.

TweetJust an FYI about ATIVAN... please don't take this personal, just a personal experience I've had with this... If the person has any kind of anger issues, chemically unbalanced or anything of that nature then they need to stay away from Ativan... hubby was put on it and by the 3rd or 4th day of him taking it I threw them out.. he got so angry at the drop of a hat, that I was scared of him!! Told his doctor about it and he said good call on my part and put him on a daily low dose prozac

TweetI'm not a Dr. but for high blood pressure, I was told by my Dr. and I have read that you should never use a beta blocker if you train with weights. Inderal is great to help keep you calm, but it's a beta blocker. I was put on a calcium channel blocker, because of the heavy lifting. Just what I've been told and my Dr. is very much up on his research. Hope this helps.
