Which I was looking forward to rather than the debilitating panic......

Anyway, I don't recall the dosage but I felt absolutely nothing. Nada. Zip.

I was my normal self, panic included. It wasn't just me thinking this, my husband confirmed it.

I was wondering how it affected those of you who take it.....
I take 0.5 MG of Xanax when I can't sleep. I use it as a sleep aid. I don't take it during the day because I don't want to feel 'out of it' while I go about my day. I use it very sparingly so I don't get used to it. I need it to keep working as a sleep-aid so I can get my sleep.
