Normally I am a good girl and I take my regular Xanax as prescribed, 1 mg in the morning and 1 mg at night. But I also Have a rx for Xanax XR that I am supposed to use for travel anxiety (I fly a lot of long trips of work and I have a big fear of flying). But sometimes I have the desire to just sleep for a long time so i would take as many as it took to make me sleepy. This happened maybe 8 or 9 times a year. But as the years have gone on, the number I take has gone up. So tonight I tool 8 mg of Xanax XR at 11 PM and here 3 hours later i am wide awake and feeling no effects whatsoever. I am sure this is bad and not a healthy thing. But god I just want to sleep. All I want is a good nights sleep.
Being in an even more desperate sleep state, i just took one of my regular 1 mg xanax a few minutes ago.
Am I fucking up my liver here? Or something else. I know it's not a healthy behavior.
