The half life of Xanax is 11 hours plus, so if you take it every 8 hours, interdose withdrawl symptoms are probably not a concern. If they do concern you, try a longer acting benzo in equipotent doses, say diazepam 10mg three times a day, another alternative is clobazam (Frisium), it produces less sedation than most benzos.

Given your responses above, I'd go high dose Effexor (start off at 75mg, then go to 150, then 225, then 300) combined with Xanax 1mg 3 times a day Valium 10mg three times a day.

It also might be worth trying the SSRI + reboxetine (or bupriopion) - in my case, SSRI's alone seemed inert, but combined with reboxetine they were quite helpfull - and, you're nearing the end of the road, you dont have much to lose by giving it a shot.
