Hi
I have a problem.
I take Solian (Amisulpride) 50mg daily for anxiety. First it was Dogmatil (Sulpiride) but now I am fine with Amisulpride. Having been at least two years on it, I tried to quit it several times.
But withdrawal was horrible. Horrendous anxiety plus all obsessive thoughts coming back fiercely to keep me ruminating all the time. Going back to the drug was the only relief then.
I am currently on 1.5mg of Xanax too.
My question is (I hope upping the Xanax to 3 or 4mg per day can halt amisulpride withdrawal symptoms. But I know 3to 4mg is a high dose of Xanax. Though I win in shedding amisulpride, will I be substituting it with another addiction? (This time Xanax?) Can anyone use 3 or 4 mg of Xanax for a couple of weeks maximum then taper andgo back to 1mg or 1.5mg?
Any comments please..
Cheers
PLS
