Thanks guys for answering. I found valium to be quite depressing (or maybe it was more the taper itself with valium though I went very slowly).
I prefer to direct cut xanax. I have tried shaving a bit off a .25 tablet and that's how I plan to do it. I can go 8 hours between xanax dose with no problem.
Rephrase my question, ok, they change your brain receptors and hopefully the receptors will go back to a normal state; in the meantime what can I take to lessen withdrawal sx's?? Feeling a bit hopeless that I will go through another year of suffering withdrawals and then what? Does the gaba automagically go back to "normal" as in a previously un-benzo'd brain? Or should I just forget it. It's much easier to cut benzos out of your life when you've been on them 5 years or less; I did it once before dry cutting xanax but this was over 15 years ago. The anti-benzo forums are frightening. People suffering for years.
