Hello everyone, long time member here...almost 5 years.
It's been a road with lots of ups and downs (like many others), but in general I have improved a lot (more on my story here http://www.nomorepanic.co.uk/showthread.php?t=119169). I'm at a point where I would like to drop the meds and be "back to normal". The last year or two I've been on 10mg escitalopram and 0.25mg xanax. I'be dropeed Xanax almost 1 month ago and I'm planning to drop escitalopram in a few months.
Withdrawal from Xanax hasn't been too bad, but he last few days head-lightness and dizziness have increased considerably. Today I went out for lunch and walked for 10-15 minutes and all the time I felt like I would loose balance and fall (didn't fell). After having lunch it's better, but still do not feel stable at all.
I was expecting some issues from Xanax withdrawal, but after almost 1 month I though they would disappear. Has anyone experience from xanax withdrawal? Any timeline when the issues will go away? Is head-lightness, dizziness common?
Thank you
