I know where you are coming from, guy, I am 12 days sober, but the only way I could quit was by going to an inpatient detox hospital , I am 42 and had been drinking off and on since I was 17, and have been taking xanax or Klonopin for the last 5 yrs, and now I am having to deal with my anxiety problem, the doctor has given me medications for my anxiety but still having some anxiety. I realized it was serious when I started waking up shaking and had to drink a couple of beers and a pill(xanax) so I would stop shaking so bad.
