 How long does it take to get addicted to xanax?

I have a pretty hefty pod tea habit and want to quit for awhile. I'm going to start tapering down tomorrow and I bought 28 mgs of xanax today for the week or 2 when I finaly stop taking tea all togther. If I take 4mgs a day for a week will I get withdrawal from the xanax? It says it takes up to 6 months on websites but Id rather hear it from someone with experience.

From my experience you shouldn't get any serious withdrawals...Cravings yes, withdrawals no...
Replacing drugs like they said is dumb but you have to do what you have to do.

I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

Most ignorant statement I've ever seen. Yea pod tea sure is a weak opiate you've obviously never felt the withdrawal from a real habit from tea then cuz you're talking out of your ass. Think your a big man because you put a spike in yer arm don't ya? Glad I havent stooped that low and never will.

Man up and quit already is something someone who has no idea what the shit is like and therefore should keep their mouths shut about it.

Id say that is worse you don't get the euphoric awesome high and you're killing yourself still and at a faster rate I'd imagine.

Ya pod tea is pretty weak, and yeah i know what withdrawal is.
I just think your a pussy for not being able to handle it like a man, and needing a crutch.

We can't tell you the answer to this question man, you should know that.  Every body is different. We can tell you what we've experienced but not what you should expect, with respect to addiction/withdrawl symptoms.

Isn't this how it's done in drug dependency programs? What about people using LSD to kick the alcohol habit or ibogaine to kick it. i've never studied addiction or anything though, but i do know there is research out there that supports the aforementioned claims regarding lsd and ibogaine.

A person, physically, can maintain an opiate addiction for years with out much trouble other than the obvious addiction and all that comes from it.

If you're going to disagree post some reasons for doing so. Obviously the addiction itself takes a toll on the body but only through indirect causes such as appetite suppression and personal maladaptive behavior.

I just thought it was funny that you don't classify addiction itself as "much trouble" let alone all that comes from it. Maybe im misunderstanding you.
