[|Human|] I have thalassemia minor and suffer from severe anxiety, with picking down my arms and back etc. I take Xanax, but very little relief. Is there a corelation between anxiety and thalaasssemia? Im taking .5  3 X a day and 100 Zoloft twice a day. Thank you for your time.
[|AI|]  As such anxiety and thalassemia are not correlated pathologically, but due to burden of the disease and repeated blood transfusions child Chat Doctor.  You have said that you are having thalassemia minor, so particularly in your case it is not correlated to anxiety. Actually anxiety and depression are psychiatric disorders which are known as "common cold of psychiatry", so it can happen to any person in this world. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms then it might be separate from your thalassemia, may be related to your life stressors, or it may be biological without any stress. you are taking alprazolam 0.5 mg thrice a day, as such alprazolam is nice
