Ive been taking 2mg of xanax for about a month, if I just stopped taking it, would i have a seizure? or is that if you're doign like 4mg a day.

Thx

I also take seroquel and trazodone if that would help (not stopping them)
 
After just a month of use? Probably not. But like olab7 says, wean yourself off, even if it's by 1 mg per day. You should be fine.
 
If you've been using them off and on before that month you may be in for some bad withdrawals. I just got off low dose xanax and it still sucked, be prepared for a massive head ache and you will probably be pretty shakey.
 
I only started seizing after i got to doing 6 to 8mg a day for months then i would run out and would have seizures at the rate of a couple a week would have to stay at home because when i would seize in public i would end up with another ambulance and hospitol bill
 
You'll definitely feel some wds, Idk about a seizure, but alprazolam is potent and I wouldn't be suprised. Alprazolam has some foul wds IME.
 
Everyone's seizure threshold is different. At that dose and duration it's unlikely but we can't offer any guarantees. I would still taper down rather than stop abruptly. Do you take your dose all at once or spread out during the day?

I want to say no..but everyone's body is different. For me I was taking 2-6mg daily for 2-3 months and didn;'t come close to a seizure. This was the 1st time I ever detoxed from benzos. Now if I take that dose for even a week the withdrawals come back so quick and even worse. So I try to avoid that bullshit.

I dont really understand what your saying... If you lower your dose by 1mg per day then he will be off in 2 days, Why not just quit all at once, it really wouldnt make a differance...
