Flushing

The rest of my Xanax down the toilet. C/O to Valium altogether as of TODAY.

Here's my Benzo saga...

Nov 17th 2011 4.0 mg xanax since Nov 2009 2 yrs gradual use.
cut to 3.5 x with 10 mg valium
every two weeks since or so ive cut by .25
sometimes by .5 if i have a long weekend and
can stay in bed.
2/23/12 at 1.25 mg x w/ 30 mg v

2/26 I WANNA FLUSH THE XANAX DOWN THE TOILET AND UPDOSE MY VALIUM INTAKE TO ABOUT 50 MG, AND TAPER FROM THERE...

ashton manual is too long of a taper, im impatient and am always tired. I can handle this.

Any feedback appreciated. wheeeeeeeeew, I hope ill be okay.

Sweet Girl,
YOu know I am here for you.  I am laying in bed about to go to sleep.  I just found out some great news myself! You know how I am going get off the rest of my lovely Opana (in a week) as I wrote you earlier??? I just read the posts saying Lyrica is super addictive, and I am on a high dose for pain.  AAAwww man!!! Did I need that?

Well, I know you have your battles, Babe.  I am here for you.  I am going to do my best to help you get what you need, maybe some support in your area--if it comes to that, and if I can.

Love, Marie

hey my friend. you have done so great with your taper. i am so proud of you. i am not sure you should flush the xanax. your taper is working so great. you have continued to drop your dose. you have tapered down 2.75mgs in 3 months.you are almost there.
did you already flush them?
i think i remember you telling me you had a doctor helping you with your taper,right? now what will  happen?
hugs,support,encouragment,prayers

Totally stopping the xanax at 1.25 mg is not recommended. Why don't you just drop your dose again? How do you take them now? A few times a day?
Valium once a day?

Well see how you feel in a couple days. If your withdrawls feel the same as your other drops or different? That would be a good gauge to use.
