Xanax is most definitely NOT something anybody should take on a daily basis. That's how people get addicted to things, and xanax is particularly addictive.
I think 1/4 mg is a small dose, probably your doctor didn't want to give you too much for fear of getting sued if you get addicted and drive into somebody. I think my mom was taking 1 mg xanax pills. Maybe this is why yours aren't helping you.
I wish I had good advice for you. People are so different. The bike usually takes my anxiety away. Find something you love, that makes time stop for you, and focus your attention on it?
