I take xanax .25 on an as needed basis. That is a very low dose and if 3 is all you took it should not be from the xanax that you are feeling panicky. I would talk with your doctor and tell them how you feel and see what they think. I average about 4 a month. I have to really have bad anxiety for me to have to take one. If I am just a little panicky I talk myself out of it and it usually works then I dont need to take the xanax. My anxiety is really bad right before my period. Thats when I usually take them, and I can take them somewhat close together and not have any more problems from withdrawl. Maybe because your body is not use to the amount that you took. I am like you I don't want to have to take a xanax at all.
Hang in there you'll be o.k
I am the same, I hate taking medicine, but if it helps the anxiety and calms you down and it helps you, you should take as directed for you to over come these horrible anxiety attacks and they will control any future anxiety
i've just been perscirbed xanax .25mg to take twice daily i have panic attacks very often and I've noticed that a couple of you would rather not take it could you post why you prefer not too? im worried, my doctors have tried lots of different medications to help with the panic attacks and anxiety.... is this a bad drug?
If I am reading your statement correctly, I believe your side effects are being caused more by NOT eating and sleeping properly while you have a big event ( interview ) coming up than it having to do with Xanax. Try eating a good breakfast in the morning as well as getting a decent night's sleep in conjunction with a Xanax and it should help your anxiety.
