Take your xanax, you might only need a half a pill (1mg). It should calm you down within 20 minutes.
A more natural approach:
All natural herbal ingredients such as St. John's Wort, Kava Kava and Valerian have all been proven to help people find relief from feelings of distress, worry, stress and anxiousness. The great thing about non-prescription medicines is that there is very little chance of experiencing side effects that one may have when taking a prescription medication. Your local health food store more than likely has all of the herbs we listed above.

Go ahead and take it for now. Xanax is not a drug you just stop taking. You need to come off it a little at a time. Consult your doctor about being drug free. People existed for thousands of years without drugs. I've seen too many people who saw a doctor for a little anxiety, got a script, and a few years later were more screwed up than before they started. Healthy diet and exercise is better than drugs.

Yes, it will. It is used to treat anxiety and panic disorder. You are actually taking the maximum size pill it comes in.
I suffer from Major Depression and Anxiety with anger issues, and I'm on a small pharmacy. Plus, I have other health issues.
Anyway, you should always take your prescribed medication according to what the directions say on the bottle.

I get panic attacks and take xanax for them also .It works for me, usually within 10 minutes or so. You don't need to be afraid to take your prescribed medicine as long as you only take it as prescribed

Relax!
I know it probably gets irratating when people keep saying things like that to you, but ti's true. Just slowly try to work at this problem from the roots on up. Remember to take your medicine, but also maybe try to learn meditation. Trust me, I just got into meditating and it makes all the difference in a positive way. Try it, and remember to have fun!
