A problem with the Ashton site is it's extreme anti-benzo slant. Some people do themselves into trouble by taking large doses of benzos, getting nasty side-effects, and then have trouble withdrawing. And we have Dr. Ashton with her opinion as to how such WD's should be handled (I personally don't agree with her). For the vast majority of people, benzos represent a safe way to reduce anxiety-and people tend to decrease, not increase their use of benzos with time, at least that's what the medical literature says. But I would think this would be a bad time to even think about WD-especially on such a very low dose. For many people, Valium doesn't do much for intense anxiety-I know it does nothing for me at all. I'd be interested in how you'd feel after just a couple days of Xanax; just as a measure of how much of your suffering is due to anxiety vs. OCD.
