just be careful do u have anybody that can check in you or do u live with anybody I have heard people have seizures on a lot smaller doses of benzos than u r on I have noticed some shaking and twiching from just. As little as 1 to 2 mg difference in benzos while trying to cut back is this a warning of a seizure I dnt know but everybody is different
thanks for the input guys. I am sticking to my xanax plan and yesterday I took 8MG, so today either 6-7, I have not decided yet. Starting to get symptoms of withdraw though, but hye, this is the problem I caused for myself and it is a problem I have to sort out myself!
There are no forewarnings of a seizure, the first one you have may be minor or massive. Of course, you may be lucky but as Gnarly says, it's a crap shoot.
If you stick to your plan to taper the Xanax, this will be safer, however the more you switch between doses & drugs, the greater the risk that your benzo receptors will respond unfavourably. It's also true that combinations of nervous system depressants, (benzos & booze) can be fatal.
I really do not have the finances to fund a slow taper, the doctors close to me do not really appreciate the severity that you speak of. Surely if I taper of xanax i will be okay? I am not 'bigging' myself up here, but I have always had high tolerances to drugs and I have mixed alcohol and benzos every day for about 10 weeks now, as you know at one point 400MG valium with maybe a bottle of wine and a bottle of beer.
Are there any signs of an oncoming seizure?
Hey dude you rolling dice here you cant predict a seizure just because you dident have one yesterday dosent mean you wont have one today please take our advise and get a doctor involved this is beound the scope of a home detox or we would tell you how to do it
we do detoxes all the time but there comes a time where someones life is in danger and your at that point and will be for quit some time in the near future it just ant worth the risk
and dont mix benzo's and alcohol ...a lot of famous rock stars are dead to that combo
good luck and God bless......Gnarly
I shall keep taking the xanax and drink a little every night, I only 2 large bottles of beer a night, but every night. I cannot get a good doctor where I am, I can however taper the xanax. I understand what a seizure is, but is it really that dangerous?
