Xanax Withdrawls - Going Off Xanax
(Newest replies first)

I am now into my 4th day off of suboxane. The side effects are getting better. I used .5mg xanax, sometimes I took up to four the first two days off of suboxane. By the end of this week, I feel I should be OK. I am Taking 3 , .5mg of xanax throughout the day and night at the moment. I want to begin to taper off xanax.. What can I expect for side effects from the w/drawl, how fast should I go so that I don't hurt myself. Somepeople seem to have no effects...I doubt I will be THAT lucky! Any suggestions? I DO NOT want to see a DR because I am afraid they will put me on something else. The DR is the one who started all this in the first place due to an arm injury 2yrs ago and oxycotin RX's. So you can see why I am a little leary of the people in the " white coats." I just would like to know what to expect and the proper way to get clean. Thanks

U have went through withdrawal from Damascus, fentanyl patches, and Percocet 10's and I feel so bad. I have had night sweats so much and am dehydrated. How do I get a doctor to help me with hydration? I am very weak and have passed out twice from it. Thank you in advance. Can't seem to find a doctor in my city to help.

I would suggest tapering the Xanax as slow as possible, but of course, getting medical advice would be best.

However, it is a Benzodiazepine, so it can be habit forming itself and too rapid cessation of it may cause seizures.

If you're really intent on doing it yourself, it's simply going to be a matter of finding a taper that works for you, while preventing the worst of the withdrawal symptoms.

Does anyone else have any advice to add?
