Discrimination: Educational institutions are not supposed to discriminate against individuals who have mental health difficulties. Where this often becomes a grey area is if a student presents as harmful to themselves or others. On another note, Xanax (alprazolam) is not an ideal daily tx intervention for anxiety. Please consider consulting with a psychiatrist for better options.
