Xanax knocks me on my Butt!!!

I take Xanax occasionally for high anxiety. I believe that it does work well, and definately calms my nerves. However, if I take 1mg or more it will completely knock me out! To the point I can't even keep my eyes open! I usually just take the amount I feel I need. I have .5 mg pills. Sometimes I only take half of one, but if I feel really anxious I'll take two. I guess my question is....If I need to take 1 mg will I eventually build up tolerence and stop getting so sleepy from it? Any advice or recommendations would be greatlty appriciated!

Actually, it's really good you have such a low tolerance- have you ever tried herbal supplements? All my siblings have or do suffer from anxiety to varying degrees, but I'm the only one on meds. Everyone else takes passion flower- www.theroadback has a GREAT formula called body calm supreme. I've even used it, and it take a horse tranqulizer to knock me out... but not for long ;*)
Best,
