[to...] Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 Hi BB My withdrawal off xanax has taken a good turn over the last 5 days. I was taking 1 Ambien CR 12.5 nightly and ran out. So I put my foot down and didn't refill script 5 days ago. I have had no discernible increase in sys and actually it has been the opposite. My sys from xanax taper and withdrawals have seemed to lessen. Tinnitus and sleep disturbance still being the worst. Anxiety has been reduced dramatically. Never had that before, it was a side affect of both meds. CNS still a bit sensitive but if I could give up coffee that would help. Stopping alcohol has made a BIG difference this attempt. In short, dumping ambien helped and will cut X again this week down to .5mg per day since I am stable ATM. If all goes well may dump X next week. I started taper around mid Jan from about 2 mg X a day. Couldn't really cut the Ambien pill very easy so just stopped. BTW I swim 3/4 days a week for 1hr. and that helps Best to All BB on the road to recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
