Xanax

Hi I have taken xanax for a few months at 3 times a day. .25 mg each time. It will definitely calm down your inner nerves and relax you. I do not have side effects from that amount.

You have to be careful , you can get addicted to it . Its better to take it periodically for stronger anxiety or panic attacks.

I also have been prescribed Xanax; however I try to never take it as it makes me feel numb. It does calm me down, but I do not like the after affects, so I try to save it for extreme moments of panic.

Hi Ali, thought I'd share something I heard last night regarding Xanax.

"I am my own Human Xanax" I was able to relate to that statement in that

ever since I got off Xanax, my peace and calm come from me through Meditation

and Breathing. No worries about getting addicted and it works just as well if not better :) xx

That’s great if it works for you! I was prescribed the same dose as you but my tolerance went up way too quickly and I was having withdrawals daily.

Now I take it as needed instead of daily (some days I take none, others I take up to four) and it’s helped a lottttt

Not what you're looking for?
