I know you shouldn't take other people's prescriptions but I did in a very crowded atmosphere and it calm me down to where I was comfortable yet coherent. please help as soon.as possible!!!!
Hi
Thanks for the query
Anxiety disorders have various types and treatment depends upon many factors that require a comprehensive assessment by a specialist, for a proper treatment
Tab Xanax , yes, will help you in relieving anxiety in short-term but may harm you and actually might worsen anxiety in long run. Your general physician should be able to write a prescription for this.
I would suggest that you see a specialist as soon as possible and till that time you could take Xanax as and when required
Anxiety disorders are quite treatable and there is no need to be panic
Wish you good luck
