Anxiety
"Its been 3 months now off Xanax ( was taking up to 4 mg a day for 2 years after brother killed himself) and I&#039;m just now starting to feel like myself again.  Coming off the xanax was the hardest thing I&#039;ve ever done.  I had to force myself to work and keep my job. I had good days and bad days (more bad than good). My symptoms were crazy. No sleep, headaches, shakes, twitching, pain everywhere, memory problems. If I knew how hard it is to come off benzo&#039;s, I never would have touched it. Short term use= ok. Stressful event=ok. If this helps one person, then yay. Please be careful! Don&#039;t end up detoxing off of a benzo and going thru hell for weeks or months. Research this med. Not fun!"
