"i&#039;ve been on and off xanax for years! i&#039;ve only always took 1/2 of 0.25mg to take the edge off when i felt my anxiety coming on and if i knew i was going to do something out of my comfort zone! it has helped me tremendously. i concentrate better and it actually helps my stuttering. i&#039;m a firefighter/paramedic and i&#039;m constantly dealing with stressful situations! i love my job and never could have done it without xanax. i hate that it gets a bad wrap because people abuse it! i have never even come close to abusing it and use it for what it&#039;s for! throughout the years i&#039;ve tried all other anti anxiety medications and xanax is the only one that helped me! it&#039;s almost like i have a chemical imbalance and xanax corrects it!"
