> Then how do you explain people having seizures when stopping Xanax???

These seizures you refer to are caused by a physical *dependency*, not an *addiction*. I should add that these withdrawal symptoms are only experienced when the drug is not tapered off properly. Withdrawal symptoms resulting from abrupt discontinuation occur with almost all other psychiatric drugs as well (many even become suicidal during withdrawal from SSRI's.)
