I'd STRONGLY recommend against Xanax... it is one of the most addictive drugs out there and I've never prescribed it in my career and never will. In fact, I recommend avoiding all benzodiazepines. I'd highly recommend seeing a therapist who specializes in CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.) If that doesn't work (or you want quicker results), I'd highly recommend talking to a doctor about the pros and cons of an SSRI. Lexapro is just as effective as any of them and works a bit quicker. They are relatively safe. Good luck whatever you decide to do.
