anxiety
"I was prescribed Xanax by my psychiatrist because of severe anxiety.  I was started on 1 mg to be taken at night. It has been the best medication prescribed for my condition as it also helped slow down the suicidal thoughts which were on a daily basis.  I am still taking Xanax under GP supervision, as it helps relieve the level of anxiety tremendously.  It is the best medication ever made for people who are born prone to anxiety throughout their childhood/adolescence and extreme shyness, yes shyness.  I also take it in conjunction with antidepressant, Aropax, which helped with my depression but also with my unfortunate disability of extreme shyness which was a constant problem for me as an adult basically all my life."
