Xanax works well for me on the occasion when I just can't calm down and start going in to overdrive. Of course, everyone is different and it may or may not do the trick for you. And, yes, it can be habit forming, but if you keep that in mind and use it only as a last resort it can be very effective. I attempted to make it a point to not take it more than once a day and not more than two days in a row. The affects it has is nice....it does make you want to take it more, so you do have to have a bit of self-control in that matter. Docs don't seem to mind prescribing it if you show them it's not being abused. I was given 30 tablets and 60 days later still had a lot left so it wasn't a biggie to get more. Now, I take it maybe once a month or so when the anxiety and stuff is just over the top.
