    i feel like i learned a lot from xanax when i was taking it. i took risks that i wouldnt have normally taken, wore outfits i wouldnt have the balls to do before, didnt worry so much about what other people thought....and everything was still okay. i realized that though i had really ****** up my life multiple times, and still came out ok. i worried and worried about the WORST THING EVER happening all the time...and some things did...my dad DID die and my boyfriend DID leave me. But I'm okay. My friends were still there, people still loved me, life goes on. I guess xanax taught me that stress never did anything but hurt me and push people away, so although i still think a lot about things i have a good friend in my head telling me that my worries are futile. cause when i wore that crazy outfit the world didnt come crashing down, adn when i xanax-dialed that long lost crush he answered and said hello. and if he didnt, **** it anyway., not meant to be. i dont take xanax anymore because i dont need it and its dangerous, but i thank it for what it has taught me. iCAN overcome my fears,i can wear that outfit and call that boy, on or off pills. be my own version of crazy,and ill get where i need to go. never be afraid to seek help for addiction going to NA (narcotics anoymous) is great for anyone in recovery, its just like this, but REAL PEOPLE!

    much love
