How do i taper off a 10-15mg per day xanax addiction? Please help ?

I am a recovering addict... I am a very active member of N.A. I did abuse XANAX in my using days... In fact XANAX, VALIUM, and KLONOPIN were my 2nd choice drugs next to a big fat JOINT... Anyway thru my experience and by the knowledge of my addictions counselor in the in-patient facility where I first "GOT CLEAN", I learned that even one year in most cases is not enough use of nerve medications to become physically addicted... So at 6 months for you, its more of a mental challenge and I truly do believe that. Your not going to have a siezure and die from it just after 6 months of using xanax... I have actually been told by my counselor "that's not possible" and I do believe it because I quit cold turkey after one year. I started using drugs at 14 and did not clean up till I was 35. I have done about every drug under the sun... At 6 months of xanax use, u can quit cold turkey with no physival problems... Go to a N.A. Meeting and use the knowledge that is passed on to you.. It is proven that only around 10 percent of addicts in recovery are successful. And when u go to a meeting, if its your first one, just listen if u like but if u decide to keep going, u have to vring something to the tables... Recovery is a selfish program and u get what u take... Bring something to the tables to talk about... It works if u work it bro...
