Health - After Effect Of AlpraZolam

[Mantri]

Guys, I m having a 0.5 mg aprazoalm everyday in the morning and evening prescribe by docotor. BUt the thing is that the dose has been completed and now when i leave alprazoalm then i m feeling like depression. Then from some where i got this info that when you leave alprazolam then you will be having a load of stress.

So guys i wanna know " Is there any other medicine which can reduces the after effect of alprazolam...?

Or if not then what will be the substitue for anyother Stress Medicine which doesn't have after effect?or less after effect?

Being depressed when stopping the medication means SWIY is mentally addicted to the drug, and the depression is a withdrawel symptom.
The best it to weight it all out untill the withdrawels will subside.
Because SWIY was on a low medication, it won't be long.

[Mantri]

That means there is no medicine and can some tell me two things also there

SWIY & SWINM

It depends how long you've been taking the medication. It sounds as if you have developed a dependency.

Stopping a med like Xanax suddenly is not advisable.

I'd talk to your doctor about lowering the dose gradually over a number of months, this will lessen the effect of the withdrawal.

[Mantri]

That would be greate thing!!

But i also feel that i have developed a dependancy over alprazolam and the thing is that if i dont have a a 0.5mg of aprazolam then i can't drive, i can;t talk confidently etc etc....

I was seraching for some alternative but i know that is not there.After a long search i m over here to ask.

Anyways i m manilyt afraid of one thing that is "When you leave aprazolam then may be an epilaptic attack due to withdraw of alprazolam?

What do you all guy says?

If you suddenly stop taking the medication altogether you can get very heavy withdrawel symtomps, depending on the daily dosage you take.

Addiction Potential
Alprazolam is both physically and psychologically addicting. Even for those who take it for medical reasons, it may become habit-forming, especially if used on a daily basis. Suddenly stopping daily use of alprazolam could be extremely dangerous, especially if the user has been taking 4 mg or more daily for 6 months or more. In rare cases, suddenly stopping this medication can cause tremors, seizures, and in very rare cases, coma and even death. Medical experts recommend gradually tapering off of alprazolam, rather than abruptly stopping it. Source:Erowid

Because SWIY(Someone Who Isn't You) takes a relatively low dose, the withdrawel symptoms won't be more then a depression, which ofcourse still isn't pleasant

another benzo like valium or lorazepam(ativan)... perhaps a barbiturate... GHB could help also. the safest bet? stop taking them altogether. its not exactly healthy territory to be in being addicted to benzos. its especially bad to start developing cross addictions, especially with these drugs. if you already have withdrawal effects like that take some time to consider what that means. the benzos will fuck your mind up like no other. it is most advisable to ween yourself off of these drugs. for example try dropping your dose to only half then half that again until you can actually stop taking it without negative effect. swim would cold turkey it but not everyone is cut out for that.

I would also add some good old fashion fitness and good nutrition. Perhaps you could try suppliments such as piracetam for depression, or vitamin b. A multi vitamin i believe would help you feel better. I have had great results with these vitamin packs called "animal paks". Tons and tons of vitamins in those 11 pills, and after taking a pak, you should feel totally rejuvinated and just plain good. PM me if you want a good online supplier for cheap, i know a few, just dont want to have to see another person pay 50-70 dollars for a tin of these things at GNC when you can get the same thing for about 25 bucks.

Hope thats not against the rules, since nothing there is illegal, and its pretty much just an online cheap gnc, i figured a PM would be ideal. I just hate feeling like im spaming some online supplier, so thats why i didnt just post a link.

GNC is the biggest rip-off of all time! Wish I owned stock in it, lol..
The animal pack is WAY over priced there. Good thoughts on helping this with depression. Vit B is also good!

i searched his posts but didnt find a reason. just curious why was this fellow banned?

[Jatelka]

SWIM never mentioned why they are on the xanax: Is it for anxiety? Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is very effective in this situation, and has been shown to be MORE effective than benzos in some trials.

SWIJ would strongly suggest NOT substituting the xanax for anything else, GHB, barbiturates (and alcohol) are all addictive in theiir own right and equally tricky to withdraw from.

Trust swim when he says that a mental or physical dependance to a benzo is a bitch, especially a very addictive one such as xanax. Maybe swim should try a long half life benzo like klonapin, swim is always preaching the wonders of klonapin because he feels its a solution to the xanax epidemic, Xanax is prescribed to often in swims opinion and leaves people hooked on its quick euphoric relief... well enough of that addy rant, hope swim said something helpful, not sure.

My advise is that you should go to your local doctor and tell him ur depressd and shit, they give out SSRI scripts like crazy. Once those SSRIs kicking in (1-4 weeks) then slowely ween yourself off of the Xan, or switch to a less addictive Bezo, like Klonopin. An just take your time and before you kno it, u wont have anymore side effects.
