I’ve been on Xanax on two occasions for very short periods of time to handle some acute anxiety issues and I can see why they are so addictive. At least at first, they are so clearly and massively effective. My doctor very thankfully instilled a level of fear and skepticism in me from day one when he prescribed them, explaining that while they were a viable option for me in the moment, the effect begins permanently wearing off very quickly. They got me through some stuff but I was happy to stop taking them and hope I never am at the point where I need to consider them again having heard where it so often goes for people.
