i have been taking xanax for around a year .25 as needed, which started every few days i would take one or 2, then twice a day, then i would stop for a while and be ok, then the last 2 months ive been taking .5 twice a day, last week i decided that i only want .25 twice a day and around 5:30 every day i start to feel the muscle twitch and spasms, not bad, but i feel them, i want to get back to using only a few times a week when i really need them .AM I AT RISK FOR SEIZURES doing so? my anxiety is ok , but i worry about the withdraws, please help if you can , any info would be great. I never get high taking these, i only use for anxiety... i almost lost my dad last year which has me in a state of reality that we will all die. i never abuse these pill and they are presribed by docs that say take em every day, but i dont want to, i dont take anything else either, they want me on anti depressants but no no........ please and thanks.
 
I don't think you are at risk for having a seizure.

However, I would still continue to very carefully maintain at 0.25mg 2x per day max, and then to slowly taper off of that (0.25mg once per day, every other day, etc.).
