Xanax Withdrawal symptoms with very low doses

Hello

I suffer from mild panic attacks and Xanax helps. I only take around .
12 miligrams in the morning (I cut a 0.5mg pill into 4 small pieces)
and that does the trick. I only take it between 2 or 3 days a week,
usually on the weekends. I know it's a very minuscule quantity, but
lately, whenever I stop taking it, I feel mild panic attacks and a
persistent metallic taste, mild tremors and other mild withdrawal
symptoms. Is it possible, or is it all in my mind? THanks

Let me clarify, I've taken 0.12mg (1/4 of a 0.5 mg pill) once a day, 2
or 3 days a week for the past year. Can I develop withdrawal symptoms
if I suddenly stop?

There will be no physical dependence. There might be some psychological
dependence ("it's all in your head"). You can stop the Xanax without any
danger.

Thanks.

ain't it just'ah "wonder drug????"

and i'm wonderin' how'd i screw up this posting order, but ...
nevermind.

i took my first xanax and after months of "i don't know what i'm
feeling but i'm dying" after my Brother whacked himself, and found a
lil old shrink, probly in his 80's in his office on new years eve,
right next to my tat shop...

i took this lil orange pill and NOBODY would help me til then and i
screamed "SIGN ME THA FUCK UP !!!!!!!!! "

relief, at last.

it was tha day Princess Diana died.

it ain't about how much or how often, Cristale, it's about what works
for you.

so much stigma is placed on this particular drug. i find people
"exposing" their intake, kind of defending (and i'm speaking in
general, not of you, Cristale.)

> > i'm confused.

probly cuz yer OVERDOSIN' ON XANAX !!!!!!!!!

ok, i'm kiddin'.

(i personally think yer just'ah cheap date.)

no, really... i have tried, and tha folks here know, i started out
with sum dumbass (after my loverboy 80+ year old shrink died) put me
on 12 mgs of xanax and refused to refill or titrate me the first
incident. hospitalization, yeah.

then i got myself down to about 5 mgs, cold-turkeyed, hellllllllo,
DOCTAH ! (agin)

i tried a third time, and woke up happy cuz i saw'ah tv with Dr. Phil
on it, and YUP... another hospital visit. (i wish i could live in a
hospital and just sit there and watch talk shows all day... and fuck
JT every 3rd anniversary of our marriage), but life ain't that sweet.

> i tried AGAIN about 6 months ago to titrate,but on a schedule Gary (GFX) recommended. ok. so i transitioned to klonapin for a few weeks found the minimal dosage to medicate the "underlying disorder" (i didn't make that up, i ain't that smart. S'PRISE !) which is now 1/2 mg BID, and i'm doin' JUST MOTHERFUCKING FINE !!!!!!!!!!!!! ::smile::

really, i am.

~tanya...

i so screwed up this posting order, i'm a disaster.

what'd i do wrong?

now i'm gettin' error messages from google.

Pope? shaddup about me not havin' a REAL news server and go some'ah
camel non-filt.
