> Jono are you more tired the lower you go this seems to happen to me at .25mg of xanax with l0mg or 7.5mg of valium. Phillipa
Hi Phillipa - I felt a maliase for a few days when i suddenly dropped the dose, like a mild case of flu (tired, dull headache, a bit of nausea, a bit achey)
Ibuprofen and Dramamine helped the headache and nausea, and it only lasted 3 days or so.
I should have gone slower, droped from 2mg to 1.5mg instead of from 2mg to 1mg, then I wouldnt have had any symptoms at all.
Considering I have taken 2 or 3mg of Xanax every day for 2 years, I think the withdrawl process has been easy.
I will now just keep the Xanax to be used as needed - when I feel especialy anxious, I will take a pill, on days when I feel good I wont take it
