I am also recovering from a severe Xanax addiction, and kudos to you @endless.drugs, because, from my extensive experiences with Xanax and other benzodiazapams, they are ALL HIGHLY ADDICTIVE, & the hardest of all the prescription pills to get off of. They are extremely dangerous. Stopping cold-turkey, WILL cause seizures... (I've had 3 in my life, and they were ALL from lack of benzo in my system for some days). If anyone reading this has never taken Xanax, Valium, Klonopins, Adavan, ect. (Or any anxiety med., which are all 99%, a benzo of some sort). Beware. QUITTING, is like NOTHING any of you have ever, or will ever feel/experience... If prescribed, PLEASE use as your doctor directs, and DO NOT take more than you are instructed... You WILL be addicted, and screwed... Period!!
