In researching BB it would seem that the crossover to Valium, even done per Ashton is not necessarily
The magic bullet.
If even done “successfully” in Ashton schedule there will still be withdraw symptoms from the Xanax that the onboard Valium may do little to alleviate.

There also seems ample adecdotal evidence that Vallium may not be at all well tolerated.
One line of thought is that during a cross over that the. Vallium should be introduced at night owing to its long half life.
Some how I am hoping for some sleep relief in this regard although the build up may take a week while the step down from Xanax is going on precipitating wd effects.

Some members here are inclined to simply taper slowly  from  one’s current Benzo
Recalculating the cut percentage size from the remaining dose…..

Ooof

I'm glad to see you've done your research on this because a crossover is definitely not a magic solution. However if you're really struggling with interdose withdrawal it can be helpful. Some people do very well on it while others cannot tolerate it. It's worth considering if you're struggling with interdose but you need to know what the risks are.
