These drugs are highly abused so doctors don’t like to prescribe them. Basically they are prescribed for uncontrolled anxiety. Goggle the drug and read “indications” on rxlist.com, drugs.com etc.
Also look up Drug Seeking Behavior which is what the doctor will say you are demonstrating if you go into his office asking for these drugs.
Anxiety
There are a variety but they are usually used in acute stress/anxiety disorders (short-term), panic attacks, and emotional trauma (such as the death of a close loved one).
Unlike most other benzodiazepines, Xanax has proven to be beneficial when used for anxiety associated with depression.
Valium is also used to treat anxiety but has a variety of other uses. It is commonly used in pre-op sedation as well as controlling alcohol withdrawals. It has muscle-relaxing properties, although it is not used for this as much now that there are newer, less addictive muscle relaxants. It is used to control seizures in persons with epilepsy (although it now takes a back-seat to Ativan which is faster acting and more rapidly absorbed intramuscularly).
As sedative-hypnotics, both can also be used as a short-term treatment for insomnia.
Symptoms of anxiety disorders include agitation, hallucinations, chills, headache, spasms, palpitations, etc. It is also for people who are trying to withdraw from alcohol and for some types of muscle pain.
