OH, my !!! yes, I did cold turkey off Xanax! I loved Xanax, taking it at night to help relax and go to sleep, but also recognized that I was addicted to it. I decided to go off myself when my prescription ran out for the last time, and had a really hard time, just having to lie in bed and withstand the withdrawal!....tingling and pain in my extremities and severe anxiety.
I just got back from a stressful visit with my mother, and talked to my aunt who said I should have stopped by and gotten a Xanax from her! She has a free supply...how!!! I don't know! Thinking of asking her who her doc is who supplies this so freely! But then remembering how addicted I was, maybe not a good idea...Just bite the bullet!
Love
Patty
