Thanks Laurie. I think I tried to taper too quickly: from 1mg/day to .25mg/day in 4 weeks. I've not only been feeling anxious but also, as you described, weak and shaky. I went for a run and had jelly legs. Also feeling moody and kind of depressed. I read somewhere that benzo withdrawal can include feelings of depression even though benzos are a central nervous system depressant.
