What Happens When You Withdrawl From Xanax (Page 5)
Updated
denyse Says:
My friend has been taking xanax for the past two months he's been taking the 2Mg bars he would eat about 10 bars a day because of his anxiety he stoped taking them for couple of weeks and now he is not remebering anything he has been passing out and saying he had a conversation with somebody and never even talked to that person. like we'll be sitting in a room and he will think the phone is ringing but it isnt. and he said he had a conversation with me one day and i never even talked to him that day. I'm trying to find out if this could be from the xanax because its making me very worried.

I just read your post back in 2011 and I wanna ask you if your still alive... Im guessing yes. And still addicted to Xanax.... Or as you put it ( you need it ) Am I correct ? Just from reading your dime store philosophy about the drug, its very clear you yourself are an addict !! By saying that you cant make it through a weekend without xanax, and that no Dr. will help you out by giving you even just a couple. Thats called addiction ! You were addicted then.... the same way you are today ! I also know you probably take more than 3 bars a day and your RX. runs out early every month....doesnt it ? It sux always counting and trying to figure out what your gonna do.... especially if your street connection happens to be out also.. I see through your silly story...your nasty attitude and general lack of any emotion that would i.d you as being human. Your to busy trying to convince people that somehow you are different......YOU , not others, truly need this drug ! It didnt occur to you that they also had a Dr who had prescribed xanax to treat the very same anxiety that you claimed to have. I do hope you see this.... Your 3 years older now and I just know that you are much more informed on the subj of xanax....isnt that right? 4 years experience dealing with it is character building ! RITE ? You know all to well what your facing if that bottle gets lost, stolen, or the usual.... runs out. And that is exactly why you must keep taking them. I wanna tell you that I also took 6mg each day because I needed it. That statement now, sounds like a hardcore addict talking. Tell me.... Hows ur addiction doin ? I dont talk to most people this way, but I made an acception 4 you based on your response to the girl who was asking you for help and wanting to die in any way she could. The least i can do to redeem myself with you is to end with some words that i hope you never forget .Im going to be very honest also. . . . Xanax withdrawal is the front door to HELL. The pain and torment alone are so severe you want to die. But thats just the warm up ! Around the 10th day into it, you cant stand up due to the fact you have been without sleep completly, you are dangerously dehydrated but are unable to drink. your organs begin to shut down and you turn blue. the mental torture escalates and you began hallucinating for the duration.... full blown psychosis. If you live alone expect to be badly injured in the last days by your own hands. Anything and everything can happen at this stage. Its at this level of withdrawal that most people die in a horrible way. If you survive to see day 13.... Its only because you are in the hospital. The hallucinations last 4-8 more days. when high doses of Halidal arent enough.... usually after 4 hrs of receiving an inj.. The psychosis and mental torture get so bad that you spend most of the next 3 days in restraints. You lose your mind body and your soul..... You are in Hell. You are going to see the devil , hear the sound of fear, and feel pain in ways no 1 can even imagine.
Dont doubt me 4 one second..... Xanax is the most dangerous drug to withdraw from. That is a fact. I suggest you never find yourself without that bottle or bag you carry it around in everywhere you go ! Those pills always come first...dont they? Just remember.... addiction needs medical assistance to get clean. Next time u run out of your much needed drug, read this again so you will know what to expect ! I invite you to respond to me.... Lookin forward 2 it. Karma can be cruel........ Thank God U have Your Meds !! Take your medicine !!

Ive been on xanax on and off since middle school and am now 41. I started abusing it and wanted to be sober and grow up for the remainder of my adulthood. Ive tried several times and this time I am on week 4...never got past a full week before. In my experience this time I took benedryl the first week, even during the day, week two, three, and currently Im taking valerian root (life saver!) You can buy it at cvs for $5 a bottle, melatonine, vitamine B. I have to be at home & only leave the house to go to the store a few times a week. I have had or am having 90% of the withdrawal symptoms but very mild, no seizures. I apologize for the grammar errors just wanted to answer your question. To have a better chance at beating this you have to get your sleep under control because the side effects from not sleeping are hell.

Very sad thread. 5 years ago this week I spent an entire week in our local hospital after withdrawing cold turkey and almost dying. While I never took some of the insane amounts posted here, I learned how dangerous Xanax actually was, perhaps the most dangerous drug to detox from. If you are not prescribed Xanax, DON'T take them. If you are prescribed Xanax take them as directed. If you are taking large doses, (anything over 3 mg a day) be honest with yourself that one day your prescriber will move on and you could face these withdrawal horrors. If you must take Xanax, try to have some spare medication available as this stuff according to our Australian friend is a class 8 poison in any Country!

Hi, I was on 20 mg a day also and eventually after 10 years got myself off. I'm here to tell you that you can be free again! You need to get into a detox and be under medical care. It's the only way to safely do it . It's a difficult journey but so worth it to have your life back!

If it gets real bad go to the ER, but its a matter of time before you have a Stroke or Heart attack. Cut down your use, do NOT abuse them, and seek help to get off of them.

Sounds like you're running out of you're running out of rx early. Which means YOU physically dependent on it. No doctor should be prescribing such a large dose. Looks like you're a drug addict.

Finally a genuine person who is 100% real in not blaming anyone. Thank you for you being a person who is real not Denali & being fake hiding like your an absent individual who is not a brain washed sheep like the rest of these individuals in this world who are acting like there gods gift to the world. Thank you so very much for being you and no I'm not perfect at all, I have plenty of flaws when it comes to me choosing to take the stuff I choose to not get out of my life 100%. It's very frustrating.... Because I know I'm a strong minded individual yet I'm being a individual who is totally wilting. But this here is not about me. It's about someone being real, something that 99% of people who live a life that's phony & fake don't do. I really want to say thank you.....
