Just wondering, as I am still awaiting my Medicaid card to come in the mail, if anyone has ever ordered anxiety medication off of the internet? I am interested in ordering Xanax or Ativan if I need to before I finally get insurance. Anybody have any good websites to share?

" Thanks. I have actually had an RX for Klonopin, Ativan, and Xanax at one time or another in the past couple of years. I actually felt more of a benefit from the Ativan, but I didn't have extreme anxiety then like I do now, so I am open to anything that will help. I didn't know that Klonopin stays in your system longer. Thanks for the info. "

" I have never ordered any meds online, but I had heard that there are some amazing "look alikes" out there that have NO medicinal value at all except that they are made to look exactly like the brand names. A bit of a scam. I would fear the worst unless you used a site someone else had some previous experience with and knew they were totally legit. Good luck. "

" Hi. Everyone is right about Xanax: it has the shortest half life in the body,meaning, its tranqilizing effect lasts the shortest in our bodies.I've been addicted to it twice. And it's interesting:I have been on both klonnopin and Ativan, and it is a close call, but I too prefer the effect of Ativan on my severe anxiety.Klonnopin made a little bit sleepier.However, neither got me addicted---which is why I,too,recommend them over the short acting Xanax.So I agree with the other posters that Ativan or Klonnopin would be your best choices.
Best of Luck,
Kaitrin "
