I have been taking .50mlg of xanax at night for about a year in a half. Part was from Dr and part was from a friend that tryed them for a day a did not like them she had 240 left. I started out taking .25 as needed same old story alot of stress, son in the marines and oversea blahblah. My script was for .25mg and I started takig them at night before bed breakig in half. Then I was going all the .25mlg adding maybe once a week during the day when really stress. Then ran out and was breakig 1mlg in half and takig only at night. Then adding a day or so durig the week. I think I have been having withdrawls for the last month when not adding the daily one. I have plenty of them left but really need to tapper off because feeling like crap they are not helping and feel like crap more than I feel good. Plus I know when I run out have no other place to get them and thank god for that because I want off. Take nothing else and never been into drinking or doing drugs. Just bad choice. Please do not say go to the DR and ask for help he would totally go off his rocker because last time I was in for a check up I said someting about the xanax and he said are you still takig them. I just said once in a while he did not know that I ust the office after my 30 day supply was up and told them they needed to fax a 3 month script into medco. Can someone please give me some directions I really want off.

So do you take them every day or not. I find it a little hard to read your post. If you have quit before and didn't experience seizures then I'd probably do it cold turkey since your dose is rather small. Otherwise try 1 1/2 .25mg pills for a week maybe 2, then .25mg for a week or two and then .125 for same and then see if you can drop it totally without bad withdrawls.
Yes I have been taking 50 mg everynight for about 4 months and then adding 50 mgl durning the day when needed maybe twice a week. Sorry about the hard reading my post just a little freaked out and want to stop to much at stake here for me to loose for something so stupid. What I ment to say I really have been having minni withdrawls for a while when I did not add the one during they day felt like crap around 2 in the afternoon. I will not add anymore during the week in the day. Again sorry about the the first post more disapointed and pissed off at my self that I let this happen even after Dr totaly up front on what could happen. I did try cutting back and do none at night and found myself not able to function the next day at work ended up taking .25mgl in the afternoon. Any help I welcome not a junkie just a mom that let herself down.
As I said my Dr does not know I have been taking them all along my script ran out and I got the rest from a friend. Mr Dr has been our Dr for 25 years and I am really imbaressed to talk to him many people as I have read on the internet have done it alone I was just looking for someone that could help me figure out what the best tapper with the dosage I take. Thanks for your help
