Now, correct me if I am wrong, but didn't you still have pain at every level of xanax you where at? If so, increasing it is not going to rid you off pain, just create the long lasting addiction that your body is currently craveing. Doctors don't have a clue at times, I'm sure of this. I am glad you have your mindset now, .75 and steady. From that, you should be able to drop it completely after you have moved and settled, thus lessening the withdrawals.

Now, you are still going to get kicked in the arse from withdrawals, because the fact is, is that even in small doses, your system is still being fed its dependency, and that is what it is too your system, a dependency. You are going to hurt when you drop totally, and it will hurt for around two months, maybe less if your lucky. So plan ahead, let people know that it is going to take that long for this crap to get totally out of your system, and not just that, but for you to learn how to cope with your PTSD without medications. Your system is dependent upon it, regardless the amount, so withdrawals are still going to be just as bad as if you had dropped 2mg of the crap.
