Question

I am 14 years old am am veryyyyyyyy nervous when it comes to skool. I couldnt take it no more so i am going to the doctor for anixty.Will the doc give me xanax?i really need it, not to drug my self just to calm my self down. So wats the age for it?

Answer 1

You are a little young for it.. it gets addicting. He will probably give you something less intense and see if that works. There are other things for anxiety that work and don't get you as messed up.

Answer 2

I doubt your Dr will give you Xanax when it is so addicting and they have other meds that are not. They put me on Valium when I was 13 until I was 18 but that was years ago and now they have meds that help but are not addicting. Don't ask for Xanax, they will think you just want drugs. Let the Dr decide what to give you.
