I've been to as well as called Drs 12 12 counties plus to try to find a Dr , every Dr I've called or been to refuses to write the perception I need ( XANEX) I've tried psychologist,, and psychiatric Drs went to classes , appointments done everything I was told to do by my primary Dr here in Indiana and I still can't get them , it's not like I do drugs ,I don't sell them I don't ever ask for anything else & I have severe osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, degenerative discs , and more my only concern is how will I get my next prescription,when my primary care Dr said to go to these places and if they don't help he'd see what he could do ( mind you I have Dr records from at least 35 years proving I am on this med ) so when nothing else worked I went back to primary,he said he didn't feel comfortable writing it so see I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place and don't know what to do ,I'm tired ,and driving 14 hrs 1 way every 3 months is getting hard :(((

I’m thinking it’s more likely that the doctors are just not willing to write your Xanax script rather than a state ban. Doctors in every state are no longer writing benzo prescriptions and are shifting their new and old patients to antidepressants and anti psychotics. Benzos are going away just like opioids and it really doesn’t matter how long or how responsible one has been with their prescription.
