This really is a doctor question- xanax lasts about six hours, and if it isn't working then you may need a doseage adjustment. Moving the doses closer together just exacerbates tolerance and dependency risks. Maybe you need to go to therapy? Just running ones mouth about anxiety producing stuff will blow off a lot of steam and help you get along 'till this trauma passes. Xanax is a real bitch to get off of, so you don't want to take more than you need.
Perhaps a longer half life benzo like Klonopin or Valium would work better. Xanax wears off at the worst possible moment, and a longer action could make things smoother.
