Your name says it ALL!! Hope of overcoming dependency of alprazolam :)
I have SEVERE anxiety and was on 3-2mg xanax+3-2mg ativan and 2 7.5 Tranxene every day(been on one or the other for 7-8 yrs and i'm 27) I will be on klonopin for life. I just had mt doc switch me off the xanax to the k-pin's( xanies are too easy to abuse by accident, like forgetting you just took one!)The K-pin last much longer and work better, but i have to switch on occasions, usually for 3-4mo's, so I lose the tolerance to the K-pin.
I actually get scared by the 24-25 day of my 30 day scripts. i don't abuse them, it's part of my disorder to get anxious. I get 90 of ea/month, and just can't see not taking a benzo. i'm that far in.
But congrats to you!! Iknow the w/d's and never made it past 7 days( that was 4 yrs ago ) your posts give me hope, which really helps. keep us informed, as i am interested in your "TRIP"!!
