How the safely stop taking Xanax without withdrawal effects?
-
I got Xanax off my mate cause ive been really stressed out and going through a hard time recently. They are 2 milligram pills and I have been taking them for 2 weeks now. 1 pill each night. I still have 30 remaining and I heard you cant just stop taking Xanax because you will get withdraw symptoms. What if a safe way to get off this drug? Like should I just take half a pill each night then half a pill every second night and eventually stop taking them like that? Any help would be great thanks.

Answer:
They recommend to quit xanax gradually and decrease doses by 0.125 mg increments once in a week, or by 0.25 mg increments once in two weeks. So, it takes time and depends on your usual xanax dose. If you take 2mg xanax each time, it will take about four months to stop using it and avoid withdrawals. Unfortunately, xanax is very addictive.

I hate to tell you but no matter what your gonna go through withdrawals from Xanax and theres no drug that can help you through your detox and alot of Detoxs dont take anyone who has been on Benzos even if you slow down your still gonna withdrawal because as soon as you start feeling crappy your gonna keep popping them to avoid that crappy feeling and benzo withdrawals are dangerous.Stay away from that when you do stop I don't wish that on my worst enemy....Goodluck I will prey for you....

That's not true, I took Xanax for 3 weeks and stopped taking them suddenly once my panic attacks subsided. If you want to wean off of them, take 1/2 pill a night, for 5 days, then take 1/2 pill, every other day, until you are down to no pills.
