How does xanax make you feel? Is it really effective for anxiety?
ByCan it make you outgoing or less shy? can it help you do presentations calmly? What does it feel like?
If you are prone to severe anxiety or panic attacks, Xanax can be helpful. It can help assist you in "helping yourself" to gain control of your anxiety or panic. You need to use it as directed by a Doctor that has prescribed it specifically for you.
No drug is a magic "pill", but when used correctly it will help lessen anxiety. It is intended to work with you, as you learn coping skills and learn how to overcome attacks.
Xanax can "take the edge off", especially if you are having an attack. It does not change your personality, as in; making you more out going or less shy, however, when you are less anxious you will feel better, and that can "enable" you to be less inhibited.
Xanax is generally prescribed for" short term usage", or prescribed for a "use as needed" basis.There are other medications that would most likely be prescribed if a person needed something for an extended period of time. Xanax wears off after several hours.

xanax calms you down. It is very effective for anxiety. It’s doesn’t make you outgoing or less shy.
All it does it calm you down enough to function better. Be Careful because the first few times it can make you very sleepy.
Make sure to get it from a doctor and not off the street. There are a lot of different strengths of xanax.
I have taken it for about 15 years.

It just makes you feel calm and relaxed. I would say it’s the worst to use cause the feeling doesn’t last very long and because of that you feel like you need more and more and you become addicted quick. In my opinion klonopin is the best anxiety med.

I had it perscribed to be for anxiety, and it worked for a while, as in made me ‘come down’, but I don’t think it’s good for concentration at ALL. I had exams one day, and I was getting anxiety attack-y so I took one, and I couldn’t concentrate for sh*t. It’s great for calming you down though.
