I went through 53.5 1mg rlam-1 xanax pills in 8 days with up to 15mg some days (stupid I know). I took 4mg yesterday and now have 3 and a half 1mg pills left how would it be best to taper with these? Since I haven't been using them long should I just drop straight down to 1.5mg or so?
Also since xanax is short acting and I got to 24 hours without anything before I took my 4mg at 2am today (soon yesterday its 23:52 in the uk right now) and only really felt anxiety, anhedonia and some general low energy/muscle aches. Would me only be getting some discomfort 24 hours in mean I'm in the clear to stop clean and throw the small amount I have left away? It being a short acting benzo I assumed if I was going to get hit hard with withdrawals they would come before 24 hours.
I guess the reason I even ask these questions and might sound a little neurotic is I have had an issue with occasional binge drinking/binge using benzos for years and found stopping could be extremely hit and miss from having seizures and audial hallucinations to just having bad anxiety and low mood for a couple of days.
