Advice on what??: Xanax (alprazolam) is not my favorite benzodiazepine because it gets in and out very fast, which is exactly what makes a drug more subject to abuse, and less effective for the treatment of anxiety. The time-released form does improve this somewhat. Antidepressants are good treatment for anxiety and don't produce abuse/dependency. Cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt) doesn't involve drugs and works for anxiety.
