Can you become addicted to Xanax if you have been taking 0.5mg daily for 6 months? If so, what is the withdrawal like?

[the crusader]

For six months, yes. Your anxiety will come back and feel worse than before. If it is possible, stay on the medication. If it helps you, then there is no reason to go off of the medication.

Yes, you could become addicted in 6 months. As long as you taper down slowly when discontinuing, however, you will likely experience little or no withdrawal symptoms.
