Hi I Am 24 Years Old Healthy Have Had No

hi I am 24 years old healthy have had no prior problems until a few months ago where my anxiety has gotten so bad that I have become unresponsive and my body starts to shake uncontrollably thursday July 16th I had an episode where I took my xanax it is one pill 3 times a day as needed for anxiety and it is 0.5mg I took 1 pill at 7:15 pm and by 7:30 p.m. I was found unresponsive on my grandmother's front porch shaking uncontrollably and I was not able to speak or move my body and the EMT'stransported me to Ellis hospital in Schenectady New York where I was until 1:30 a.m. and I was not seen by a doctor the entire time I was there my mother in law said that I was not seen by a doctor at all I was not able to wake up until 1:30 a.m. where I was finally able to come out of my attack and talk very little and I needed help walking because I was still shakingI do not know what to ask my doctor when I see her Friday for this continuing problem because I continue to shake and I have come close to several other attacks similar to the one I had on Thursday and my counselor and the on call doctor have ruled out these episodes as a side effect of my xanax I do not know what's going on with my body or how to explain it to people around me to make them understand when it happens again.
