Xanax Withdrawal (Page 3)
(Newest replies first)

Okay. I've been eating Xanax like candy since February when my dr did prescribe me 1 mg a day... But I often took more than that. I went from about 8 mg a day to 1 mg a day a few weeks ago... My withdrawal symptoms are awful, I even had a seizure 2 months ago when I tried to go cold turkey. I have excessive sweating, my forehead is on FIRE, I can't eat, I feel like I'm panicking constantly. What are my odds of dying at this point? I mean, it's been a few weeks... Wouldn't that have happened by now? I'm scared. My dr cut my 1 mg dosage completely in half to .5 mg a day... I just need some advice... I don't know what to do.

I didn't mention the Xanax thing and had a years supply of Lorazapam that I hated so started the process you described. My Hospital, the only one in a 200 mile radius invited me to stay a week. On day 2 I told the attending Doctor what I thought it might be as I was pretty sure why I was so sick for the previous 2 weeks. Could have written a book as each day was different! Hope you follow this advice

I mean, I have meds that my doctor prescribed to me. Would it help to take some & then explain to her tomorrow? I'm so afraid of losing my child...

:( I have a child. I don't think I can just walk in & tell the truth... But I do have an appointment with my doctor at 9:30 in the morning. Should I tell her? Will they take my daughter away? What happened after you went to the ER?? I'm so scared now.

It happened to me on 3 mg a day. I stopped cold turkey and experienced all the symptoms you mentioned and some others you didn't. I did not have a seizure but by the time I walked into the Hospital about 2 weeks later the ER doctor was freaked out and couldn't believe I could speak as I was in "Walking Critical" condition. You need to get to an E.R. even though its been a few weeks and never do this again. Sure I am back on Xanax but at a much lower amount per day. Basically you are dying! I fully expect the word filter to hold this message, always does on my most important replies but please, you now know what to do!
