Do You Need Xanax Addiction Treatment?

Like any other addiction, a Xanax addiction can be hard to recognize. Often, friends and family members will be able to notice your addiction before you do. If you’re worried about how addiction is affecting your life, it may be time to consider Xanax rehab.

Signs and symptoms of Xanax addiction include:

  • Using or craving Xanax regularly
  • Spending a lot of time getting, using, and recovering from Xanax
  • Having multiple prescriptions or a stockpile of Xanax
  • Spending money you don’t have on Xanax
  • Neglecting relationships and responsibilities to use Xanax
  • Continuing to take Xanax despite negative consequences
  • Taking more Xanax than you mean to
  • Needing more Xanax to get the same effect (tolerance)
  • Feeling bad when you stop taking Xanax (withdrawal)
  • Engaging in risky behavior while on Xanax
  • Doing dangerous or illegal activities to get Xanax
  • Trying and failing to cut back on or stop using Xanax

You Don’t Have to Face This Alone

Whether you’re seeking help for yourself or a loved one, recovery starts with a simple phone call. One conversation can be the turning point.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you still have questions about Xanax addiction treatment, we’re happy to help! Give our team a call and we’ll tell you everything you need to know about our programs, so you can make an informed decision about your care.

Xanax is the brand name of a drug called alprazolam, which is a type of benzodiazepine medication. Doctors prescribe Xanax to treat anxiety and panic because the drug decreases abnormal excitement in the brain. Like other “benzos,” Xanax works by decreasing levels of Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). Because GABA inhibits our pleasure receptors, lowering the amount of GABA in the brain can make us feel relaxed, euphoric, and uninhibited.

To stop using Xanax, you will first need to detoxify your system by tapering your doses, or taking less and less Xanax over time. Detoxifying from Xanax can create unpleasant and dangerous withdrawal symptoms, so you should not do it without medical supervision.

During detox, you could experience:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Panic attacks
  • Headaches
  • Insomnia
  • Sweating
  • Delirium
  • Seizures

Detox is a critical first step, because it cleanses your system of the drug. At North Georgia Recovery Center, our focus is on treating the addiction itself, not just stopping drug use. Call our team after you’ve completed the detox process, and we’ll enroll you in a program that reduces Xanax cravings and prevents relapse.

The length of Xanax rehab varies depending on individual circumstances, including the severity of addiction. Some programs may last several weeks or months. Our experienced staff will work with you to determine the most appropriate length of treatment for your needs.

Keep in mind that support continues after completing a rehab program through aftercare services that help you maintain sobriety. This may include attending support groups, therapy sessions, or participating in 12-step programs.
