Yes: You may be experiencing withdrawal. Continuing xanax (alprazolam) should help. Consider longer acting medication, though. Xanax (alprazolam) has its place, but it is so short acting that sometimes people feel anxious between doses and this could promote misuse behavior.

Xanax (alprazolam): Withdrawal possible. Not sure why u discontinued abruptly. Talk to your prescribing doctor since s/he knows the dose & what to expect.
