two nights ago and plan to go to .5 in five more days. I would like to go off quicker than this plan which will have me off in about 2.5 more weeks but am feeling crappy already. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I have been taking 1mg of xanax every night to sleep for 4 years. I started tapering down to .75?

I have Rozerem to help sleep now but have not started taking it yet. The past two nights I've slept a few hours each night.

Hey wfy_42002,
I suggest you slow the taper down a bit taking a couple weeks between reductions in dosage. If done slowly, you can avoid most of the withdrawals though you may have insomnia since you are use to taking something.
Best wishes,
Laurie
