Hey everyone - I'm taking Xanax after what I believe is an isolated incident of a panic attack (lot of stuff going on, including a divorce). I've been doing much better and no repeat, although definitely a bit shaky emotionally. I've been on Xanax for 5 days counting today, .5mg. The first two days I took 3 of those each day. The next two days I only took 2. Today I've taken only one and I'm hoping I won't need a second.
I've read about weaning yourself off of Xanax, which seems particularly important in long-term use to avoid withdrawal symptoms. Does anyone know if I should be concerned about reducing my intake to 1/ day or to zero given it's been so short? That's the only concern I have, withdrawal symptoms. I doubt that I could have built up much dependency yet, but I really don't know.
