Thanks Michele,glad to know I'm not alone,i really don't want to go on anything else after the he** I went through to get off the xanax,didn't even know i was addicted or going through withdrawal untill I found this forum when I told my doctor about the withdrawal she told me that at that low of a dose 0.5mil 1 time at night for 6 months i should not have withdrawal and i told her she needed to read up on benzodiazepines before she prescribes any more well needless to say she is not my doctor any longer,any way just a great big thank you for listening,

It took me several months to get over the anxiety from xanax withdrawal.  I used zoloft of course to help, because I was having lots of personal problems then.  Your symptoms were like mine then, it is normal.  I don't know what you are willing to do = like get on an anti depressant..that did help me..good luck to you and hang in there ok??  one month is great!
