Has anyone taken xanax for anxiety? What does it do to you?

I read one of the side effects and it said it makes you “confused.” I have a full time job….if I take it, will I still be able to function normally at work?

Funny thing about xanax, when you start getting that feeling that you are going to have an anxiety episode it gets you back on an even keel, no side affects.
If you are taking it say three times a day as may be prescribed there is a possibility of feeling tired, I have a rule of thumb if you don’t feel you need it don’t take it. If you do that’s when you feel tired.
One other thing to take into consideration is the dosage. If you can get by cutting the pill in half, give a shot, If that feeling persists then by all means take the other half. .
Xanax not only can be physically addictive but psychologically too.
It is not recommended the axnax be used to treat every day stress.
