This pill helped me tremendously, but this pill is also very addicting and extremely hard to come off of. It completely changed your psychological being after taking it for so long, I urge everyone to try and find another source of medicine.

I believe this medicine is a "God-send" for me. I can now do things that are a common activity for most people. I've always dealt with some type of anxiety in new or social situations. Now taking 1MG of Xanax XR my nervousness and anxiety are gone. If I have a day that I know will be long I have a smaller prescription of the 2mg pill and this last all day.

Can't say enough about how this medicine has changed my life. I look at it like take blood pressure medicine and it's something my body needs. I hope it will always be available. I have not felt the need to keep upping my dosage and believe with self control it is not additive. It get's me over the hump.

I was diagnosed with a panic/anxiety disorder approximately 8 yrs ago. I have tried every type of drug possible to calm me down & nothing worked.

I was diagnosed with a panic/anxiety disorder approximately 8 yrs ago. I have tried every type of drug possible to calm me down & nothing worked. Finally, after seeing a psychiatrist he prescribed the regular xanax 1.0mg (3 per day). As, a worry wart that I am, I refused to take 3 a day for the fear of dependancy. I would only take 1 per day & at the most 1 1/2 per day, which did help with the calming. Then about 3 months ago he decided to try the xanax xr 3mg per day. After a week of that, I found I was so sleepy! I went from climbing the walls to sleeping all the time. The dose was way to much for me. So, after the 1st month he lowered it to 2mg per day & so far it has been much better. As we all know these kind of meds can become addictive & that was just another thing I had to worry about, but I finally tried to use the power of my mind to NOT let myself get addicted to them, and I also look at it this way. If I can live close to a somewhat normal life again instead of being a figity hermit, then I am all for it. So far I can say that I am not 100% my normal self, but this is the closest I have been to it in the last 8yrs! I would definetly try it, if you got anxiety & don't worry about the addictiveness. If you got a good dr. that will watch you closely & that you are not abusing them, I think you will be fine! Life is to short to not enjoy it like you once did, so I say give it a shot & try it. If someone would've told me they had panic/anxiety attks 10+ yrs ago, I would've thought they were crazy! Trust me, they are scarey, they are very real, & I don't wish them on anyone. But, I am VERY thankful that I have finally found something to take the edge off!!
