Xanax must be tappered very slowly, it can cause head rushes blures and all kinds of weird stuff!!  Your Dr. needs to help you with this one.  Tappering to the lowest minscule amt.  over time,  but never just stop once you have been taking it every day for a while.  Read all the info you can abt. withdrawl (withdrawal) and stay in touch with your Dr.  He needs to help you with this.  My son took it for  awhile and he said it was kick--- stuff.  He never wanted to take it again.  And he only took it for a month!!  

  I am sure others will be on here after awhile,  sometimes it is slow on here.  Just know that you are not alone in dealing with this.  Read the other pages on here and search for info on it.
