weaning off the Xanax
It will be four weeks on the 24th
My goodness
The pain of withdrawals
The pits
Today I have a healthier
stronger mind
which helps me in a huge way
It will take a long time
This much I very well know
Yet I did it having three 1mg in a day
down to two
I have been on two 1mg for about two or three years now
And have begun the weaning process again with half the dose in the morning
Just amazed at how some elderly who have no clue what could happen and not even know their brain is hooked on it
I always hated the risidule
And I do not use HATE in my everyday vocabulary
I need the cold air on my face
It is one thing what is already going on with my hands and feet
add to that the disgusting clammy hands and feet and then the anxiety that wants to take over
I have till two o'clock before I will take my second dose
Until then
I lay down as my heart starts to palpate
And concentrate on my breathing
That is a big deal in just everyday stuff
You get my drift
Try and stay conscious with what's going on
I have my BP cuff at arms length
My daughter is here
Most importantly
Upon my visit to my pain specialist
He is now dispensing my script
and is aware I am attempting to get off of the drug
completely
So lets see how all this will go
ONE DAY AT A TIME

I have to remain at absolute calm an hour before the two o'clock
dose

Breath I must
But a conscious kind of breathing
I will stop now and concentrate on me right now
