I have been going off of Alprazolam/Xanax 1 mg. I think the doctor had me go off too fast. I had been taking it for at least 15 years or more for sleep at night (1 mg.) and 1/2 mg or 1 mg at times for anxiety. I have not taken it for anxiety for maybe at least a year.

I've gone down 1/4 mg per week for three weeks and am now down to nothing. Am having bad panic attacks and great anxiety and feel very, very SCARED of LIFE!

I am thinking of taking 1/8 mg for at least another week or two to see if that helps. I think I must do that. I will see doctor on June 10. I think he should have had me go down 1/4 mg for TWO WEEKS EACH instead of ONE week. Anyone have experience with this?

Hope you will reply soon. Thank you.
