help getting off xanax

Hi, this is my first post here, I've actually had some time clean before, 5 years and 2 years. Best years of my life.

Anyway, my doc prescribed Xanax and I'm having a heck of a time getting off, I haven't told him I've been taking more than I should, and I got some off the street 2 times already. The most I was taking in a day is like 2-3 mg.

I ran out 5 days ago and have been having some pretty bad withdrawals. I feel like I could lose my mind and my heart is pounding out of my chest.

My question is after 5 days do I still have a risk of seizure? Is it true that withdrawal might last longer cause I stopped cold turkey? Every where I read it says do not stop cold turkey. I didn't really have much of a choice.

I really appreciate anybody's help, I'm dying over here, God Bless, Rita
