Xanax addiction usually occurs accidentally. Xanax ultimately is prescribed to treat anxiety disorders or panic attacks and severe stress. Xanax is available by prescription only, Xanax, produces a calming or soothing effect on people by “slowing the brain down.” Xanax, the brand name for alprazolam, slows down neurotransmitters called gamma-aminobutric acid. People who suffer from anxiety disorders or panic attacks tend to have over active neurotransmitters. By slowing the neurotransmitters down the Xanax tends to relieve feelings of stress and panic. Much like other drugs such as Cocaine the high takes a little more each time to achieve the same effect. With Xanax on the other hand reaching the calm state you prefer after a long period of usage takes an increased dosage. This is how a Xanax addiction can result.

This is an actual e-mail from one of our readers, we have taken out the names and the e-mail address. This seems to sum up the addiction to Xanax they have overcame.
After reading many websites and many blogs, I have successfully managed my so called addiction of Xanax. I new I had the mental strength , I remember quitting smoking and that was tough. I consider myself a strong person and know that this was going to be a long battle with Xanax.
I started taking Xanax as a stress releaser, during work. I found it easier to deal with things that way. After a while about a year or two, I found myself using Xanax as a social drug as well. Going to my buddies house and having a few beers, going fishing having a couple drinks. After three years of this I was up to four .5’s of Xanax a day. I had no problems, I had no issues. I kind of coasted thru life.
I really didn’t relies anything was wrong until I took a year off of work and relaxed. Being self employed and a good money manager I was doing pretty good. After the seventh month I found myself and my family of five running short on cash. So I sold things on e-bay. Not a bad gig if I don’t say so myself. I had plenty of left over inventory and that held us over for another three to four months.
Without insurance the $120.00 a month for my prescription was getting to be a little more problematic. But I always find some cash. I am always good at falling into a pile of crap and come out smelling like a rose.
I finally figured out that I had to get a real job when the housing market crashed and I had some issues with some properties I invested in when things were good and I was working and hustling for the cash that allowed us to live so nice.
Maybe I needed my vacation, maybe I needed my mental vacation that Xanax gave me. I can’t say if I would have done the things I have done and moved my family several times if I wasn’t hooked on Xanax and had such a dependency on this harmless little pill.
I quit smoking 9 years ago and I would love to have a smoke but I wont. I quit for a reason. I figured I enjoyed Xanax for a while and then it kind of enjoyed me. I weaned myself off one day at a time. I had some help from my buddies, who always seemed to hang with me and I enjoy their company. We still go fishing now and then.
I think I have done this with help from friends and reading about Xanax. I hope it works for those who think they need it. I have found I simply don’t need it anymore.
