Xanax is terrible. I discovered it as a “miracle cure” and got super addicted, ended up going to jail and almost getting a felony for possession. It made me not care about anything at all so I didn’t go to college until I got off of it, delayed me a couple years. It made me super irritable and angry when I wasn’t on it. It gave me a huge level of confidence to where I’d try to talk to my mom while shitfaced and I thought I was totally playing it cool while slurring my words and having trouble walking. If I could get the anti-anxiety effects without the side effects I’d still be taking it but it seems like that’s not possible. I would quit taking it as soon as possible because it’ll just be harder and harder to quit. I miss it sometimes but I know that I’m better off.
