A member asked:
Can anyone recommend a safe taper dosage of 1 mg xanax for insomnia? ive been taking this for 3 years. i want off of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Find a life coach to teach you stress reduction exercises and relaxation techniques. Once you have these it should be relatively simple. Try every 3 rd day off then every other then just off. Much of the issue is more habituation (habit) than physical. If you have skills to fall back on you can pursue life unmedicated.
