Hi everyone,

 

I took a high dose of Xanax for approximately one month. During that time I also used other substances including alcohol and amphetamines. I went CT after the month period, and was not aware at the time that what I experienced afterwards were terrible withdrawal symptoms. The most distressing symptoms I had were constant restlessness and muscle twitching. My symptoms gradually cleared up over the next year.
