The problem with Xanax (from personal experience) is you can be on a scheduled dose (like every 6-8 hours) & it works in the begining but you develope a tolerance!. How long have you been taking the medication!? I bet it worked for maybe the 1st year & now you have to take it more often right!? I had some bad experiences while taking Xanax & after taking it for almost 10 years, I realized I was worst off than wen I started taking it, so I too 6 weeks off work & slowly weaned off it & fired my psychiatrist because I figured out that taking meds made me more anxious!. I assesed my condition, got off all medication, started taking "Valarian Root" (an herbal supplement) & haven't had any problems for 3 years now!. Of course the worst experience in hindsight was getting off the Xanax!. (I don't recommend doing this yourself if you chose to do so)!.
Excersise is important as well to help release anxiety & raise endorphin levels!. Jogging is a good start or anything that gives you a good cardio-workout!. Eat as much fruit & veggies that you can & try to eat less meat!.
I really hope you get through this!. If you ever have any questions or concerns please ask!. I'm always glad to help!. Good luck, God Bless!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
