[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My primary care physician suggested it as a stop gap measure while we waited for the SSRI to work effectively.

She's refilled it a few times since then. .[/quote]

I was prescribed Xanax as needed for "travel" about 10 yrs ago- when my anxiety and panic was acutely triggered by plane travel and then later, pretty much any travel.

Prescribed a low dose and just a few pills. Xanax gave me my life back and obliterated the intense anticipatory anxiety that I had experienced every since I was 5.

Now I carry around the prescription bottle with one Xanax pretty much everywhere I go. It's my security blanket. Just knowing that relief is there soothes me and gets me through the event.

Advice for getting this prescribed:

- I bring in my bottle of pills (usually full) to show my prescriber.

- My parent was an alcoholic; I am a teetotaler. My NP knows this.

- I take this exactly as prescribed: AS NEEDED and I try not to take it more than 2 days in a row.
