Can Anti Anxiety medication help vitiligo?

Just wondering what everyone's opinion is on this. I feel like having vitiligo has caused horrible anxiety in my life. I have a prescription for Xanax but rarely take it because I try and keep my body free of unnecessary drugs but I do take it a few times a month on average- just when I feel like I really need it. I notice that it helps me so much. I feel much more optimistic about my skin and life in general when I take even a small dosage at night. I'm wondering if I should just stay on it and maybe if it reduces the stress in my life then it will help my skin. Any thoughts on this? My next appointment with my dermatologist is next month and I'm going to bring this up to her.
