Ok to start I am a new member, but I have just searched through old threads for years prior getting information. Sorry if this is the wrong
forum but I wasn't sure and needed this question answered.
Ok so I have been taking xanax since approximately January 8th of this year and took my last .5 pill today. Through this time period I have taken 32.5mgs total, mostly on a everyday basis probably 2 .5 a day a different time but sometimes 3 .5s if I had an extra stressful day. Also to be straight up I was also drinking heavily during most of this period because it was syllabus week in school so I've been pretty much hammered like most days, on weekends easily 10-15 drinks a weekend night and I would drink also pretty heavily if didn't have much school work to do. Whenever I did drink I took max 1mg xanax before drinking and never blackouted besides once when I had taken 1mg but for a football sunday me and like 5 people drank like 4-5 5ths of alc and 2 bottles of wine in a extremely short period of time with me and one other friend drinking the majority. Besides that nothing ever reckless happened on xanax and all i did was end up sleeping on floor till midnight when i woke up.
So recently works been starting to catch up so I did not drink at all yesterday day and took one .5mg xanax in the morning. By the night when the xanax wore off my arms were trembling (isn't super weird I've been nervous whole life and hands would shake), eye twitching and I was extremely irritable. These people talking on silent floor of library not too loud but right behind me really pissed me of and my hand shaking made it hard to do work so just went home. I took one last .5 xanax which didnt really help the symptoms so ended up drinking 4 beers to potentiate it because I only had one more .5 left. That night got terrible sleep and night sweats, and this entire day felt terrible horrible headache and only managed to get out of bed once at 3pm to finally get food. Took the last .5 xanax which kinda helped but not like all symptoms gone. So could I be going through xanax withdrawal with the total amount I did in the time period? Its hard for me to tell cause I was drinking so much too and that day was probably first day without a drink so I can't tell if its the alcohol. I was suppose to get a refill today which would be perfect but snow storm messed everything up and next time I can see doc would be tuesday. It is maybe possible for me to call in and get a refill tn but it have to be done kind of soon within next two hours, and should I be getting a refill anyway? I plan to go on an ssri when I talk to doc on tuesday also and don't want to not have any benzos while that kicks in. So do you think this is xanax withdrawal and should I get a refill or ride it out till tuesday? Its just hard cause I'm in school and I literally couldnt function at all today, and if its going to be like this till tuesday idk if I can do it.
