So now I am officially starting to taper off Xanax. Long story. But I've been on it everyday for 5 years (I know it's not recommended long term, but they have allowed me to stay on it due to panic disorder/agoraphobia) so now it's time to taper. Basically because I want to have a baby with my husband but there's more.

I've gone down .25mg and have been on 1.75mg for four days. I'm scared but I've got to do this. And yes I am doing this with a doctor.

I guess I'm just looking for any advice or encouragement from people who can relate. I at first went down to 1.5 but that was too big of a jump and I had withdrawal so I'm going to stay at 1.75 for a week. Looking forward to my cognitive abilities hopefully returning. For example, I always go for the wrong cupboard when I mean to go for the coffee cup cupboard. Just a little thing I've noticed.
