I can't sleep without it. I have horrible panic attacks without it. But, I don't want to need it. I know people have said that it takes years to get off of it, but I have no patience. I quit smoking cold turkey, first try. That's just how I am, it's not better or worse than anyone else it's just how I have to do everything. This xanax thing though, I can't do it. I don't like to say those words. I'm very conflicted about the whole thing.
Well it is VERY dangerous to quit benzos if you are so dependent, so please be careful. And don't be so hard on yourself. Who is judging you but yourself??
