Nearly there on my xanax weaning - xanweaner's Journal

May 31, 2008 12:36AM - 1 comments

It's time for another step down the twisting, turning road of my weaning...I'm tired even before I start. Tomorrow afternoon, it's time to get my pill cutter fired up to cut that .125 mg in half. How long will I have to suffer on this go-around? Tomorrow is Day 29 or Day 1 - depending on the perspective. My goal was to be off of xanax by the end of June. I have to pick up the pace - I'm moving like a dessert tortoise...

I need some inspiration...I miss my old energy...I miss my happiness that seems to have slipped away....how much is a result of my mirtazapine, which I also want to wean off next? I enjoyed having various phases of mood - the AD seems to level everything off too much - a bit too much sameness...I just don't like it.

hey my stool color got pale from xanax too. My doctors won't believe me and I don't even know if what it was doing to my bowel color was safe. I was only on .25mg of xanax a day and took myself off. 2 weeks later started crying, depressed, high anxiety more so than before I took xanax. I ended up taking .25 mg of xanax and like magic I was 100% better no more crying and obsessive thinking bowel color right back to pale. No one believes me but this drug has messed me up. I have been on .25mg for 7 days now and tomorrow I am stopping again. I am so grateful I found your post I looked for months for xanax and pale bowels and there was nothing. My doctor said it wasn't xanax causing it. I am so scared of how I will feel in a few weeks time after coming off this drug and returning to that nightmare state. I have no idea how long I will feel that bad. I did read some place it took some people months to feel better. I don't know how long I can take that feeling. You aren't alone.

If you need to email me or anyone else with this problem silentjealousy77 at yahoo *******
