Anxiety
"I am prescribed 0.5mg Xanax twice a day as needed.  It works very well for me when I have high anxiety.  I have no side effects at all from this drug, I don&#039;t even get sleepy with it, I just feel calmer.  I have taken a variety of benzodiazepines for years, and I have never had a problem with an addiction to any of them (and I have a history of drug abuse).  I would just say to take as needed and at the correct dose, and don&#039;t take continuously for a long time, and you should do good with Xanax. "
