Xanax

Side effects I might have experienced after taking my first Xanax:

• drowsiness
• increase in appetite aka "the munchies"

Side effects I am very grateful I did not experience after taking my first Xanax:

• hallucinations
• agitation
• feeling dizziness, light headed or fainting
• urinating less than usual or not at all
• headache, fatigue, joint pain and unusual weakness
• speech problems
• Short term memory loss and impairment of memory functions
• anterograde amnesia and concentration problem
• blurred vision, unsteadiness and clumsiness
• constipation, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting
• dry mouth or, more likely, increased salivation
• sweating
• skin inflammation
• Aggression
• Mania

Side effects I was hoping to experience when taking my first Xanax but sadly did not:

• elevated mood and confidence
• decreased inhibitions, no fear of danger (increased risk taking behavior)
• Euphoria
