Going off Xanax - HELP?!!

Posted by Simus on November 8, 2004, at 8:42:47

I was put on 1mg of Xanax at bedtime for sleep when I first started SSRIs years ago. Several months ago, I switched from SSRIs to Wellbutrin, and the Xanax no longer seemed to have a noticable effect on me. So I wanted to stop taking it altogether, especially after I read that it interferes with REM sleep (and I seriously want to find ways to improve my sleep).

The first night I cut back to 0.5mg and I slept well. The second night (last night), still on 0.5mg, I slept for maybe 2 hours with very poor, nightmare-filled sleep.

Does anyone know anything natural that can help me get through this? Thanks.
