Last night I took a xanax to relax my mind?

Question

cause my kids came back from my moms over the weekend, and I was wondering just for me to ignore the fighting and yelling should I take another so I wont be that stressed out?

Answer 1

That would be abusing.Xanax is considered a major tranquilizer! If you are unable to care for your children,i suggest you seek professional help!

Answer 2

Well,i don't think you should turn to meds just to help you ignore your kids because they are doing what kids do.You are the adult,take appropriate action.

Answer 3

When you take Xanax, you must stop taking it with graduation. If you take it like a normal pill, it could be danger.

Answer 4

I take Xanax daily for my anxiety. If you are really nervous then take one.

It will not make you ignore anything just because you take one.. It will just make you less nervous unless you cannot handle taking medicine and it may knock you out.

Answer 5

I don't know. Take a whole bar if you want.

Answer 6

Xanax are extremely addictive anti-anxiety drug.They come in few different strengths.You might find you feel sleepy and fuzzy,try taking half of one,they are scored so can be halved easily.Be careful taking them as i have had 2 car accidents when i was on them.I had 2mg tabs(strongest dose available)and insurance would not cover my accident as it warns you not to operate any machinery.

I would only take half whilst kids are in my care in case they need your attention,eg emergency .Perhaps you should look into other stress relieving methods,going for a walk,take the kids swimming and you join them.

Answer 7

Don't take more than one (which is still a lot!). And in my opinion it is dangerous for your kids to be in your care if you even take one. Xanax gets you messed up to the point where you don't care and can just pass out. That isn't safe for children.

Also why don't you deal with your kids...a good mother shouldn't just ignore them and sit there and let them fight.
