Hi,
Considering that you have panic disorder with agarophobia, it would be better that you should be treated with some medication that will take care of the disorder per say like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, rather than only taking xanax. Xanax will help reduce your anxiety but not take care of the disorder as such. i would recommend you to meet a local psychiatrist immediately.
Best wishes.
