I wish I had the money to get off these pills. I am on a low dose but it’s hell. I have no one to help me. not even the doc who gave them to me.

Xanax addiction caused by psych. 5 mg / day of Xanax for 3 years can build up so many neuro-toxins in the nerves, brain, fat, etc that a person is very toxic. Benzodiazepines like Xanax are addictive and require supervised holistic detox to correctly withdrawal. Full body detox helps the person recover and live normally without benzos and not feeling like a psych case who's anxious and panicy. Unfortunately Erika's comment may be interpreted by some as a reason to stay addicted to Xanax. Xanax side effects caused Erika's grand mal seizure. Xanax destroys lives. Detoxing from Xanax correctly give's you your life back. Xanax is addictive. Health is nurturing. People on Benzo's are their psychs (or doctors) medical experiments. Let drug rehab advisor know when you want your life back again, we'll help you end your benzo dependency.

I have taken xanax for about 3 years. My psych doc over time increased the dosage to 5mg a day. I didn’t think too much of it, but last summer I lost my bottle. Again, doc app was in 3 days…i could make it, right? NOT RIGHT!!!!!! The sudden withdrawal was complete hell. Torture. Sounds ampliied, couldn’t be touched by someone without jumping out of my skin, shadows and hallucinations darting past my eyes, no sleep at ALL. It was the most HORRIBLE thing ever. At the end of the second day i was so dizzy and confused….I remember getting a drink of water and walking back to the bedroom to try for the millionth time to sleep. Next thing I knew my mom was standing over me and all I could see was a white ceiling and feeling VERY tired. Turns out I had a grand mal seizure (my mom is an RN). I was convulsing, foaming at the mouth and had bit a big chunk out of my tongue.
The ambulance took me to the hospital.

After all of that I started having panic attacks that I would lose or drop my bottle AGAIN! Vicious cycle! I told my doctor I wanted OFF the xanax; I looked up a lot of information about benzo withdrawal. He dropped me to 4mg. I was STILL sick of it!!! Having to depend on a chemical to not DIE! So he decided to put me on 8mg of klonopin, plus 1mg of xanax only as needed. However, klonopin is a damn benzo! I am proud to say, I barely ever take the xanax. For that, I am proud of!

I am also ‘supposed’ to take 200mg of lamictal and 50mg of celexa. I have cut myself down to 20mg of celexa and 100mg of lamictal. YAY!

But the klonopin….still a benzo which equals still not good! Although benzos can be helpful short term, they are an EVIL class of drugs, I HATE them!!!!!!!!!! I know I am withdrawing from the celexa because i have become seriously depressed! NO appetite, sleep 18 hours a day if i can.

I am just SO SICK of taking medicine! ESPECIALLY benzos! I don’t think i have an addiction, just a total physical dependance!
