Yeah I was reading in an AARP magazine article on internet (missed actual article) that sometimes benzodiazapines are prescribed for it, or antidepressants. I was taking 1mg xanax for years for anxiety but had weaned myself down to a 1/4. My pills are half mg and I was taking 2 a day, then 1 and a half and went to a half the beginning of October. I'm wondering if going off those is what did it because I don't remember it being this bad while on the full dose. I started back yesterday taking the 2 a day and I'm going to see if that makes a difference. If not then I'll wean back down and if they do, I'll ask Dr for something else. There was a mix up with a new doctor and I didn't get the rx for over a week last year and went through horrible withdrawals. Never again. I want something that isn't a benzo but will keep xanax for situations where I need something fast acting. I ordered 2 bottles of lipo flavanoid yesterday. Should be here tomorrow. I've also got 2 and half more bottles of Cortexi to use. Hopefully something will work. At times I am able to tune it out but when it's loud it's impossible.
