I just got Xanax prescribed for social anxiety. I took .50mg (the prescribed dose) and it did nothing for my anxiety. What gives?

ask your doctor.
any more than that and most people just get fucked up/drunk feeling.
learn how to deal with things without drugs and without feeling anxious. the xanax is supposed to help, but not cure you.

Well considering you're being social right now I'd say it's working!

Xanax is addictive and dangerous.
I blacked out friday on a combination of xanax and a few other drugs and broke shit and pissed off my neighbors.

if xanax doesn't work, one of the many others in the benzodiazepine family might. for example, valium does absolutely nothing for me, but xanax does, they're both benzos, but what may work for some might not work for others. talk to your doctor about alternatives to xanax.

You got a tolerance?
First time I used Xanax I took 0.5mg before work... I was dropping and breaking shit every 30 seconds.
I was talking so much shit it felt like I was on meth.

Rice eaters with nothing but gym shoes, and a rifle, and a bowl of rice took him and his tanks and his napalm, and all that other action he's supposed to have and ran him across the Yalu. Why? 'Cause the day that he can win on the ground has passed.

.5 mg is a pretty low dose. But it should at least relax you a little.
