Average Withdrawal Timeline - Xanax

[[pa...]]

Hello fellow buddies!

 

I started my unfortunate journey on Xanax roughly 6-7 months ago with mild usage in the beginning months and significant usage over the last few months. I recently decided to CT with severe withdrawal symptoms kicking within 24-48 hours but they seem to subsiding as I close day 3. I am starting to notice the severity of the initial symptoms decline and normal senses begin to return. Any one else out there have a similar experience or is this just high hopes and I may be in for a longer ride? Thanks!

Hi pacino78

 

Welcome to BenzoBuddies!

 

We’re glad you found us.

 

It is only early days, and although we would certainly never advise a c/t, I am hopeful you’ll be one of the lucky ones who come off the medication without being severely affected over quite an extended period of time.

 

Just keep us updated over this next period… let us know if things do get worse.

 

You’ll have access to plenty of information and resources here at BB, as well as a community of members happy to offer support and provide feedback to any questions you may wish to ask on the forum boards.

 

If you have any other questions, please feel free…

 

Again, welcome!
