Hello my name is Chris and I am new. I have resently decided it is time for me to get off Xanax and Aderall the next few days or weeks. Is this program a good tool to use whuile I am on Xanax, I still have phobias , but of course my panic is pretty much gone. I still avoid places like flying, high buildings,concerts and large gatherings so Xanax is not a cure all, but it has kept me feeling normal. I have been able to hold on to a job , but now I am off work and I am 53 and have been taking Xanax for over 30 years. I take 5 mg. of Xanax and 90mg of adderall and I have discussed this with a physician about tapering down.I am afraid to get off Xanax because I also am a alcoholic with eight years of recovery and I remember how lost I was when I got out of treat ment for alcoholism and I had no Xanax and my life was a living hell. I could not function, but I was sure glad I was not on any pils. However the Agoraphobia I had was not worth living with and I went back to my Phychiatrist and he put me back on medicine. Anyway I thought starting this program would be a good idea right now, while I still have avoidance issues. Any feedback is positive. Thank You
