Tapering Off Xanax Without Valium


[Re...]

Recommended Posts

Can this even be done smoothly on a benzo with a short half-life or is it going to be a rough road?  I can't get diazepam or any other benzo with a longer half-life.

 

If you have done this I'd appreciate your comments.

 

Thanks

Yes, the Xanax Support Thread folks can give you information about how they are tapering or tapered.  I did a 9-month direct dry cut taper from 3mg of Xanax to zero and it was doable.  A link to my detailed taper schedule is in my signature, if you'd like to take a look.  I did not wish to cross over to another benzo and I'm so glad I didn't.  Tapering in general, is a "rough road" for most of us no matter which benzo we taper.  Valium is no an exception.

Sounds like you have some good advice. Question is, why can't you use Valium or a longer acting benzo? Just curious.

 

No doctor, no money.

 

 

 

Thanks for all the replies.
