taking xanax for four days

Hello I've been taking xanax for four days once a day a night with the lowest dosage (.25) and I want to stop taking it. Will I experience withdrawal symptoms if I stop it even though I'm only taking it for a couple of days?

Very smart to want to discontinue.  That's a low dose and I think you will be fine to just stop tonight.  Taking xanax on a continual basis is not the way the drug was designed to work.  It should only be taken on occassion for anxiety, not as a sleeping aid every night or even every day.  Browse this forum or the archives for an excellent education on xanax.  It's been talked about a lot recently.  

Good Luck!

I think that you would be alright to stop taking it. I take xanax .25 on a as needed basis. When I was going through a rough time though, I took one at night for a week, then stopped. I had no problems. .25 the lowest dosage. It's not good to take as a sleeping aid. It can become addictive, if used incorrectly.
