Day 21clean of opiates... Never thought I would be this far

I'm on day 21 and honestly I'm ok!!! Still taking Xanax...grrrr!!! The reality of me not taking a pain pill is getting easier! I'm still around my mom that has to take em due to a cple back surgeries but I dnt even have a thought of taking one or stealing some like before. I need off the zs and don't know how to taper properly since i buy em from someone. I take bout 8 mgs a day mainly to sllep and for panic attacks I sometimes have. Any suggestions??

My only suggestion about xanax is that you cannot stop it cold turkey.  You have to taper it slowly.  You should probably see a doctor and get a plan.  8 mgs is a pretty good dose per day, so you will want to be very careful!  

Congrats on day 21!  That's GREAT!  Get some help with the xanax, ok?

That's a lot of Xanax!  Sounds like you've switched addictions...
You need to get in touch with your doctor for a good taper plan and to get the anxiety and panic treated properly.
Don't stop the Xanax cold!
