Ditching Xanax with no WDs??

[drfeelgood1]

So.....I recently just kicked off Xanax and its been around a week or so with no "fatal" WDs (so far)....
I have been on Xanax taking as much as 1.5mg a day. Not at all exceeding that limit.

I have been working out every night. Still not a single side effects of WDs. Maybe, just maybe a lsight lingering depression. But no physical signs of WDs.

My question is, kicking off a 1.5mg /day habit, will the the WDs kick in anytime even after being off as long as 1 week?

Thx!!!!

It's hard to say because you didn't say how long you were taking the Xanax. I went through withdrawals one time from binging on these and it was pretty unpleasant. I think it hit me after a couple days but I was using higher doses. Just keep exercising and take care of yourself. You might walk away unscathed.

The fact that you're writing this with a lick of optimism pretty much implies you're going to be alright.

Hey, drfeelgood, would you mind listing your diet? Your meat/milk/vegetables/fruits intake daily?
Or are you vegan by any chance?
I imagine that would make matters easier

thanks

In theory, I think I know why I dont have any WDs. Its because Benzos werent as much enjoyable to me. There dysphoric. I felt very emtpy inside and even felt that it was worsening my depression.

You're in the clear by now, I would say.

As others have said, you are quite lucky if you were on it for a prolonged period of time.
