After reading all of the information posted lately on Xanax I thought I'd share my own experiences and ask a few questions regarding the use of it.
I've been on and off for about 3 years. Never taking more than one bar (Who knows if it's more than 2 mg maybe 3-4). But I take a full one every night to sleep. I can tell I have some small memory lapses, I had decreased sex drive for a short amount of time (Went away and I have no idea why), and other "bartard" symptoms.
I don't really know where I'm going with this post, but I can confidently say that it has had negative impacts on my overall health. First I will say whatever (my vendor who will not be named) is a trustworthy guy. I find it more of a mental issue of not being able to sleep and the occasional feeling "weird" experience from long term use. (Granted, I have gone 6 months on 4 months off, things of that nature).
Now for the questions because you all are a lot more knowledgable than I am on this.
Obviously, cold turkey would not suffice since the length of use. What would you guys recommend?
I don't know whether or not it's an addiction or a habit. If I don't take it I don't lose my mind, crawl out of my skin, or freakout, but I can say I have experienced situations where I'm not comfortable. I.E. Going to the store and buying normal things like groceries, clothing, etc.
Clearly the best way to get off is a taper. Now who wants to taper with bars that may not necessarily be dosed properly? (In the respective scores of a bar) Any suggestions are more than welcome that's kind of why I'm here asking you guys what you would do in this situation.
TLDR; On and off use for about 3 years. What would you do in my situation?
Theyre 2 mg bars. Slowly taper off if u need to.
