Anxiety
"Any drug can get a bad wrap because of some people abusing it. A lot of doctors don&#039;t even like prescribing Xanax because they don&#039;t want their patients getting &quot;hooked&quot;. For me, I suffer from occasional anxiety attacks, and my prescription is &quot;as needed&quot;. Anxiety attacks can be VERY scary. There were a few times I literally thought I was gonna die, it was that bad. I even went to the ER once because I believed I was having a heart attack. They are different for different people. I use to smoke and drink a lot of coffee, so I think that&#039;s what screwed up my body chemistry. I don&#039;t drink caffeine or smoke anymore. All I know is that now that I have my Alprazolam (Xanax) in my pocket, I&#039;m not as scared to go places. I can live my life again."
