Going off of Xanax

I actually went to an inpatient center of a wonderful hospital for two weeks to help me wean from Xanax and for coping skills for anxiety and depression. I met with a psychiatrist every day who changed my medications and substituted the Xanax for lower doses of Klonopin which I’ve had much success weaning down to .5 a day. I plan to be totally off by the end of the month.
The brain fog has lifted and I feel almost like myself again. I’m back into activities and looking forward to each day.
Not everyone can take two weeks off but I’m retired and it pushed my weaning forward with daily professional guidance.
The best to everyone totally ridding your bodies of poisonous Xanax and/or any other Benzo!!

Congratulations! Thanks for sharing. I will Be half way on Friday🤗1 day at a time.

Wow congratulations, I am on ativan, I have been wanting off but been on them over 10 yrs. I'm scared, I did cut a 1/2 off of .5 mg and now 6 months later, I'm depressed, sick cant eat. I know I'm not taking a large dose, but I'm very sensitive to drugs and everyone is different. Do you think the depression is from the Ativan withdraw or am I maybe just depressed ????
