anxiety
"I have been taking Xanax (alprazolam) in moderation for a few years. I do not take it unless I feel extremely stressed, which leads to depression. Although I take Lexapro for depression and anxiety, Xanax is still needed for the severely stressful times. It quickly calms my nerves and helps me to not worry and stress so much about things most people would not stress over. It also helps with my short temper. Overall it has been helpful. Also, I tend to forget what I've done or said or experienced while under the influence of Xanax. Also, I noticed it increases my appetite for not-so-healthy foods. Use with caution and moderation."
