Hi, I am looking for advise on Xanax... I was prescribed .5mg pills from my family doctor, but it never did the trick for me (im 6ft. 3in, 190lbs... kind of a big guy for .5mg to take care of) so i went to my doctor again and asked for 1mg doseage and he gave me a months supply, but said i need to go see a psychiatrist.

I have an appointment with my psychiatrist on friday, but he has always been hesitant on giving me Xanax (ive never openly asked him for it, but he has never suggested it), so im thinking of seeing a new psychiatrist, but i don't know what to say to the guy because i know im gonna get this whole run down of EVERYTHING else to try (zoloft, prozac, valium, celexa, klonopin, buspar, etc) but ive already been on those and don't want to go back on anything related to treating depression because i use to have depression and i will NEVER go back on them.

The reason i think i need xanax is that i have a very tough time in social situations, i dread the thought of carrying on a steady conversation with a girl, or branching out and making friends with a couple guys i know. I went to a dance a couple of weeks ago and couldnt stand being there... it was so overwhelming seeing how everyone but me can have a good time. I spend the night in the parking lot. There has also been alot of stress going on in my life, and when i think about how i need to pay for college, move out, manage to stay in classes without succumbing to my social anxiety, my bosses telling me i need to improve at work or i will be let go... it all just overwhelms me and i shut down.

So if your still with me, my question is how do i ask for xanax and reject all of those other prescriptions without sounding like a pill hunter? Hell, if you know a doctor who is willing the admit the patient knows what best thats in Utah, let me know.
