Xanax is very addictive - it will do nothing to teach you how to cope or understand the psychological side of your problem and DON'T believe any lazy doctor or shrink who will tell you all your problems are biochemical - that issue medically is FAR from proven but it's a copout for many people.

Xanax is great for very short term use - a plane trip, death of somebody close to you, a bad panic episode. but long term use you'll get hooked on it very fast and getting off it is hard - quit cold turkey or forget your meds for a day and you could end up in an emergency room. And it's very common when you're done with long term use of Xanax or some of the other anti-anxiety meds that you will get hit by 'rebound anxiety' which can be worse - leading to a vicious circle many people never work out of really.
