another "will i go through withdraws threaed" but I really am scared

[itsme123]

took 2mg klonopin every friday
for several weeks and never experienced withdrawal on the off days until
2/20--2mg klonopin (friday) and then
2/21--1mg klonopin (saturday)

from 22,23,24,25 I felt headaches nausea and increased anxiety. (never experienced before, nut I also got a bit of a cold and have a panic disorder)

2/26--2.5mg xanax (all "feeling like shit symptoms" went away)

do you think when the xanax wears off I'll go through withdrawal ?
Im scared

well taking klonopin every friday or saying one day out of the week for several weeks isnt no where near a habit to exp any type of WD
even taking it 2 days in a row is NOT enough to exp WD
i truly believe you are panicking about exp WD when in fact you really shouldnt feel any and i say this because you say you have a panic disorder
and well....i think you are making yourself feel that way
in many cases when you exp full blown WD its after taking a daily dose for a long period of time not taking a benzo every once in awhile like you state

yeah of course xanax worked because thats what its supposed to do

youll be surprised how you can make yourself feel like shit without even knowing it....kinda what anxiety boils down to
the more you believe something is wrong the more it becomes "true"
kinda like when you "truly" believe you are having a heart attack and the hospital says youre fine just a panic attack
you begin to feel physical side effects of the anxiety

and yes being ill can intensify anxiety because of the weakened immune system

get better and dont take more benzos if what i understood is true ill bet money its your own panic disorder making you feel like shit
try taking some benadryl should help out or another good antihistamine should help without causing WD

PS trust me youll know when you are exp WD from a benzo itll feel like crawling out of your own skin wont even help
