How bad is it??  It's bad and it's a lot of Xanax. You need to tell your OB about this right away. Do not stop abruptly and do not taper down without a doctor's help. This needs to be addressed immediately!     Good luck!

Have you spoken to your OB about this?  Is is a Dr. who's prescribing this much xanax for you?  That's a lot of xanax - I used to be addicted to this drug and was taking 4 sometimes 5 .25 mg pills a day - and if I'm understanding your post - you're taking 8 mg of xanax per day?

Tell us a little more and I'm sure we can offer help and share our experiences with you.  And welcome to the forum!  Coming here is a great first step although you didn't mention if you're trying to quit?  If that is the case, benzo's (xanax) needs to be tapered off of and should not be stopped cold turkey.
