In reply to ANY SUCCESSFUL XANAX TAPER'S OUT THERE?, posted by BUCKEYE FANATIC on July 28, 2006, at 10:06:56
I tapered from 4 mg several years ago. I found that simply taking a disposable emery board (the 10 for 99 cents variety) and filling off a certain part and sticking with that for 3 day, then a bit more, etc. made the process O.K. My only side effect was some anxiety, but I found that after I had withdrawn to zero, that was still the case. I guess that's why I was taking the Xanax. :>} What a great panic disorder with depression med. Best of luck; sounds like you are doing well. I found I did very well on 1 mg per day and not well below that-not because of the withdrawal, but because of the PD. I wish I'd just stayed there instead of withdrawing to zero...would have saved myself a lot of discomfort.
