Meeting with my doctor today, how do I convince him to prescribe me anti-anxiety meds?

always be honest with your doctor. the answer isn't always to treat a drug issue with another drug. only your doctor can offer the proper treatment for YOU. everyone is different, but if you tell your doctor exactly what is going on when you've tried to stop, he/she may think your desire is apporpriate. fyi, those anti-smoking drugs like chantix and zyban aren't supposed to be stopped cold turkey, the appropriate way to stop is to slowly taper and decrease the dosage. you probably don't need an anxiolytic, but rather appropriate drug cessation. make sure to ask about that too.
