could you guys drop your side effects and stories about taking xanax for your anxiety ? did it help ? did you have a hard time with it during or after ? what does it feel like ? 

i’ve had panic and anxiety for years and i didn’t get it looked into until recently due to its increasing severity and my dr prescribed me .5mg (that she told me to break in half for anxiety inducing situations or when i feel a panic attack coming on , so i would be taking .25mg ) and i haven’t been able to bring myself to take it because i’m so ! scared of being dizzy . it’s my biggest fear . 

i tried looking for other posts but most of the other xanax threads are for recreational use ♡
