Posted: 04/18/06 - 00:00 Post subject: withdrawl from zanax |
|
|
I am Zanax abuser. I heard from one guy that it works similar to alcohol and that can I get high with Zanax. So, we tried and unfortunately we liked. Now I want to quit with this. I think I become addicted on it. Thing that worries me the most is how withdrawal from Zanax is going to feel. I don’t know who else to ask, this is a secret. Please help me!!!

Withdrawal symptoms from Zanax feel like the opposite of the therapeutic effects. Withdrawal from Zanax can produce especially severe symptoms. They are similar to those in alcohol withdrawal; including jittery, shaky feelings, rapid heartbeat, sweating, insomnia, shaky hands and anxiety. You have to be strong to dill with this. I advise you to seek for help.

|

I see where several requests - re. withdrawal from xanax. I certainly, can't say this will happen to everyone but can let you know the experience that I just had. Thirteen months ago I had a heart attack & was prescribed xanax 2 mg. three times a day. I ran out & decided not to get it refilled as I was liking the effects TOO much. Within 3 days, I began to have full blown auditory as well as visual hallucinations & severe paranoia - had to be admitted to a psych unite for 3 days. I've been totally xanax free for 18 days now and still have not returned to normal state. This is a "cut your own throat" drug when not available to you any longer. Actually, it could have been handled differently where I could have weened down, but I'm kind of grateful to feel the pain again. At least, I know I still have feelings & regaining all 5 of my senses. Think twice or however many times it takes people - THIS IS NOT A DRUG TO PLAY WITH.
Thank you & prayers to all your endeavors.

I have been on zanax for over a yr. For horrible stress that i have been going through. When i run out of them it is sooooooooo physically horrible! my joints hurt my teeth hurt from clenching all my muscles hurt as well, i begin to studder, i have extreme hot flashes all day and night. I almost feel like im having a heart attack! I don't know what do do sometimes ,,, oh and lets not forget i cannot eat at all when im going through this withdrawal! I can only say to people when a Dr. wants to put you on this stuff for any length of time, run out of his office! you will have some serious effects from it ,, anxiety is worse then ever, and a million times worse with my panic attacks. |
