I have been on Xanax for a couple months. 0.25 3x's a day. It is very important to take your dose on a reagular basis, without going over the dose given. I did that the first month because I enjoyed the effect, and felt as though one more would not hurt. The withdrawls and shakes only come when abused. It is very easy to become ammunied to your dose. I have a friend who has progressed to a very high dose, Has very bad withdrawls, shakes,and seizures.

I was taking 1mg.of Xanax 3x a day for 3yrs., I quit cold turkey at a Dr. advice (very stupid Dr.). After 2 days of hell I had 2 siezures in a 30 minute time span. The second almost killed me, I had 4 broken ribs and minor kidney damage. For 2 weeks my speech was slured and my mind was somewhere else.

I've been taking xanax for 12 years now. I take .5 mg 3x daily. It has enabled me to live a normal and productive life. I was finally able to finish college, socialize with people, and function like a normal adult.
What disturbs me are the doctors who won't prescribe xanax because of its addictive quality. So what if it's addictive?! I think most people who live with debilitating anxiety would much rather live a normal life and be addicted to a drug than to live with panic, fear, and irrational thoughts their entire lives.
As far as side effects, I sometimes feel tired, especially when I take one at night, and the withdrawal is very unpleasant. However, I'd rather live with these side effects until something better comes along.
For those of you that are trying to get off of xanax and are having a hard time: good luck and god speed. But don't demonize a drug that has helped countless people feel normal again.
