Best reply by Beautrix:
Xanax is often prescribed for panic and anxiety disorder. However it is only really meant to be a short term fix rather than a long term solution for anxiety. It will help you to feel more relaxed but it may make you feel very sleepy. Xanax is highly addictive and thus why it is given as only a short term treatment. Seeing a psychologist who can offer you cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has been found to be as beneficial as any medicine prescribed. I encourage you to look at CBT which examine the ‘how when where and why’ of our anxiety and panic, as it will give you the skills to cope with your emotions and deal with your anxiety in less drastic measures as medicine. But that is the long-term goal, and sometimes we need medicine therapy to give us the strength work towards that goal. As for erection problems, xanax is not really associated with any sexual dysfunction..except that you might fall asleep.

I have been taking Xanax for a long time for the same reasons. I have never taken Xanax on the schedule of three or four times spaced through out the day as usually indicated on the bottle. I take the Xanax when I feel a panic attack coming on or have high anxiety. So basically I take it as needed. My dr knows this and agrees with this.
I will sometimes go days without taking one. They say these types of drugs can be addictive. I think when people are taking these 3 -4 times daily, this is how you become addicted.
Also this drug will not cause erection problems. One of the best things to do for your anxiety is exercise.
