I've taken 4 mg a day of xanax for extended periods and have never had a problem tapering off them. I've also taken 30mg a day of ritalin for an about a month and was able to stop cold turkey. Your mileage will most certainly vary.
I'm suspicious of your doctor. Zyprexa is a much more heavy duty drug than a benzo, and in the long run can cause movement disorders. I think you might like to find another doctor who makes more reasonable medication decisions.
Feel Better,
