In the real world....there is this drug called Xanax (Alprazolam), which is usually given out as a prescription to help treat anxiety and panic disorder.
It belongs to a class of medications called benzodiazepines which act on the brain and nerves to give you a seemingly effective calm feeling.
In general, as long as you don't consume alcohol, mix other drugs with it, or get into massive chaos to double up your stress....it works.
The fact that it only works six to ten hours? Well....you kinda time your dose....to get maximum effect.
If you decide it's crappy....well....you gotta talk to the doctor because getting 'off' Xanax is pretty screwed-up and has potential problems. Some people will tell you....from the day they said 'enough'....it took a minimum of six months to feel safe.
Potential side-effects?
You might feel light-headed (dizzy)....like the night when you discovered Hillary Clinton lost the election.
Your risk-taking views on life might increase, where you actually sit and talk to conservatives and they seem to make sense all of a sudden.
You might hallucinate to some degree (thinking you were in Malibu with a Baywatch-Democratic mayor on your arm, then it dissolves into a new hallucination where it's really a transgender politician who seems to talk like that Senator Cruz guy).
You might feel sudden rushes of energy....like you think you can fix every pothole in your town, or cure America of Covid by thrusting masks at people.
You might have these thoughts of agitation occur where the slightest comment by a conservative guy sets you off and makes you identify him as 'orange-man'.
You might seem confused......like why did Doctor Fucci seem to make sense last month, and today seems like a 4th grade kid?
The question is....are we consuming imaginary Xanax enough....that it screws up our reality?
Fact: Just for the record, if you were thinking about that Parkland School Shooting of 2018, with that Cruz kid....wondering if he did Xanax? Well....he didn't have any problem admitting he used it.
