- XANAX
As one of the most widely used benzodiazepines, Xanax has quite a reputation. It’s often known not for its legitimate medical properties but for its high potential for abuse. Much like alcohol, Xanax works by depressing our central nervous systems, creating feelings of relaxation, euphoria, and relief from the stresses of daily life. But its ability to numb can quickly spiral into something detrimental.
When a temporary habit blossoms into a full-blown addiction, finding professional treatment may be the best way to move forward. Sequoia MD is here to deliver quality Xanax addiction treatment that’s as unique as you are. Our Xanax addiction treatment options are designed to help you regain power over your life and all it encompasses.

Signs it May Be Time to Seek Treatment for Xanax Addiction
There’s no such thing as a “right” time to ask for help. If you believe you or a loved one could benefit from professional Xanax addiction treatment, you’re likely right. Still, knowing what to look for can help you feel more confident as you decide which Xanax addiction treatment options are right for you.
As is true for many other substance use disorders, Xanax addictions can be difficult to spot. Those experiencing them might try to hide or downplay their symptoms, even to themselves. Signs like those below may indicate that reaching out for support is your best next step.
Physical
- Physical dependence: craving Xanax and feeling irritable, uncomfortable, etc., after not using it for some time
- Drowsiness
- Vertigo, dizziness, and weakness
- Vision problems
- Slurred speech
- Poor motor coordination
- In severe cases, breathing problems and coma may occur
Psychological & Behavioral
- Changes in mood or mood swings
- Memory problems
- Confusion
- Slowed cognitive functions (thinking, reactions, etc.)
- Spending more time alone or disengaged from hobbies
- Depression
- “Doctor shopping,” or visiting a large number of doctors to get new prescriptions
- Forging Xanax prescriptions
These symptoms can be worth noting on their own. However, combined with some general signs of a substance use disorder, they’re especially likely to point to a potential addiction. Some symptoms of a substance use disorder, as defined by the current Diagnostic and Statistic Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), may include:
- Feeling a persistent urge to cut back on or stop using Xanax but failing to do so successfully, sometimes repeatedly
- Spending a good deal of time seeking out, using, or recovering from Xanax
- Consuming Xanax in large amounts and for a longer time than intended
- Engaging in fewer personal hobbies and responsibilities in favor of using Xanax
- Continuing to use Xanax despite its negative impact on your relationships, work, school, etc.
- Experiencing withdrawal symptoms after discontinuing use
Classic withdrawal symptoms can include those below. They’re often severe enough to make an individual feel like they have no choice but to relapse as a means to find relief from unpleasant side effects like:
- A general sense of discomfort or uneasiness
- Anxiety
- Panic attacks
- Irritability
- Problems falling or staying asleep
- Shaking or tremors
- Excessive sweating
- Appetite changes
- Feeling detached from your body
- In severe cases, hallucinations, delusions, and psychotic reactions may occur
Stopping using feels great. However, moving away from drug use you have used every day for months or years is a big change.
How Xanax Addiction Treatment Works
No two people share the same needs when it comes to treatment for Xanax addiction. Still, some overarching principles are part of most successful treatment plans. The goal of substance use disorder treatment is not to completely avoid all relapses or challenges but to give clients the tools they need to overcome and bounce back from them. Like any other chronic illness, addiction can ebb and flow. What matters most is that you have the skills, resources, and support systems you need to stay strong and in line with your goals.
Some key elements of Xanax addiction treatment can include:
- Developing new, healthier coping skills
- Pinpointing the underlying causes and roots of addictive behaviors
- Working through mental health and personal challenges that drive addiction
- Discovering new goals that motivate clients to pursue sobriety
- Connecting with resources that help clients pursue their goals over time
As a patient moves into recovery away from an active substance use disorder, we start working to build treatment services and plans that can fit your unique situation.
