Like MootPoint, I am not a doctor either.
But from everything I've read about benzos like Xanax, a person has to steadily wean themselves off to minimize side effects. It sounds that not weaning off of them properly caused your current ill-effects.
I recently told my doctor that I wanted to go from 1.5mg/day of klonopin to 1mg/day, and he instructed me to reduce my intake by .25 for a few weeks and then drop to the 1mg. He told me that making "substantial drops" isn't the way to go about it.....I didn't think .5 was that big a deal.
Anyway, I'd do what Moot suggested, and that is discuss all your symptoms and concerns with your doctor. He or she can modify your prescriptions and get you on the right track.
Best of luck!
