Missymae, I think you may be right about going to detox, especially since my husband doesnt understand and I am trying to get off of both alcohol and xanax, I dont think he realizes the extreme emotional feelings I am having while trying to quit plus he is bipolar and is not even tryimg to do anything about it-I think he is a hypocrit and besides that cant stand being around him when I try to quit something like drinking he is not a good support system and he doesnt understand the severety of trying to quit xanax, that it would take a long time to taper off and that some people have seizures if they try to go cold turkey on either alcohol or xanax. I am just venting. any comments are welcome.
