I was trying to use Xanax to quit Suboxone, and my plan failed, as usual. Anyway, I took 16 mg xanax over roughly the past week. My schedule was something like 2 mg one night, a couple of days later, 4 mg, day after that, 6 mg, and 5 days later, 4 mg. That was Monday night. Anyway, yesterday and today I haven't been feeling so great. It felt similar to Suboxone withdrawal (sweating, malaise, etc.), but I even increased my Suboxone dose, and that didn't help.
I can't tell if this is xanax withdrawal or not, as I've never benzo withdrawal before. The thing is, I've heard anxiety is one of the bad problems with the withdrawal, and I have no anxiety at all. I'm not having any mental problems (I'm not craving Xanax, no anxiety, etc.)--I just don't feel so great.
Could this be withdrawal? And if so, how long could I expect it to last? Also, I have 2 mg of Xanax left, if anyone thinks I could taper with that at all.
