I have been on alprazolam for thirty years now. I started at 3 mg daily for 27 years and 2 mg daily for the past three years. I stepped down by myself over the course of a week with no problems. I started at 34 and am now 64. Still taking 2 mg a day with no issues. Maybe I am an anomaly but I have no issues with memory. I do not think I will ever stop, not because I can not, but because I need sleep. All the traumas come out to play as soon as the lights go off and it gets quiet. I am also on antidepressants and get Spravato once a week. Counselor once a week too. I hate being alive! I wish my memory would fade away!
I am going to pray for your wellbeing and healing right now. May God bless you abundantly, in Jesus’s name.
Bravo!
I have sleeping issues and anxiety as well. Thanks for sharing your story.
i've been taking alprazolam 30 years. For about 5 of those years I took 2mg. I've taken 1 mg for the past 20 years. I've never had to increase my dose. I only take it at bedtime, so any impairments are a non-issue since i'm going to sleep, not out driving or doing my bills. I'm 58 now. I don't know if I will end up with dementia or not, but I haven't had a problem so far.
No dementia here! I take mine at bed time too! Soooo many people are diagnosed with dementia that I do not believe it is caused by any one thing. What about people diagnosed who have never ever taken any kind of drugs! I am definingly not going to worry about it! I will be 65 this summer. @@lorrielephew1966
There is no way you can have a conversation with your doctor because they are in and out of the room before you can blink. It's ridiculous.
So true, they have to prescribe meds and run us through the shoot to make a living.
I am paying for this visit by paying my health insurance premium. Also I don't believe I should be treated this way, if doctors don't want to spend time with me, like I am invisible, then they are in the wrong occupation. They want money then go to New York and be a dog walker, they will make plenty. Poor dogs tho, they will probably just sit in one spot, then take them home.

Wow I haven’t even seen my doctor in years . I see one of his nurse practitioners . I only go to get my prescriptions refilled. I take Valium sometimes it works good for sleep .
@@Sarahbee-o8t wow! Me too! I’m 89…only reason I go is to refill my 1/2 Mg Xanax . Shuts my head off to sleep. I get 5 hrs at most. Seems to be enough as I don’t nap. Only other med is for thyroid.
I’m 89 ……have a feeling that I’m not worth the bother. Have no health issues after changing to a 97% plant based diet. Walk 3 miles a day. Red sunrise and approx 15-20mins of bright sun just after the rise to set circadian rhythm. Many times I have tried to go without the Xanax, but…
was awake for next 24 hrs. I’m too old to miss my sleep and would be unable to walk /exercise next morning.
STUCK! I do have the dry mouth, eyes, skin.
I don’t normally take the time to comment on UA-cam but I after watching this from beginning to end it would feel like such a disservice not to take a moment and thank you for this incredibly informative video. Your thorough coverage of the various topics related to this issue was truly enlightening and I want to highlight how easy it was to follow the way you presented the information. Thank you so much for all that you’ve done.
Such a high compliment! Thank you!
Now a days you see your doctor, your doctor sees the computer screen and types into the computer and then leaves.
That's a good thing worry about your own brain some people have anxiety that's intolerable.
And it's not pronounced klanzopin
agree
I have been on Xanax 1.0mg x 3/ day since 1994 after being diagnosed with anxiety disorder. My heart pounds from head to toe and to my fingertips, non-stop day and night, every day of my life. Xanax and Rivotril have been at the same dosage since 1994. They work for me, not sure I could go off. I am 71 now.
I've been on a 1 MG for a few years now but....I break that into 4 prices so, a 1\4 will work well for me for the whole day. If needed.
@@ofeliaware8690 yes they do work .for what your taking it shouldnt be that tuff on your body .I'm hoping it wouldnt be for you!! Please dont go up on dose !!!!🤗
At artzology....yes taking even that amount 1mg 3times a day for a while scince 1994.def will cause those symptoms .I get the heart pounding and left side of body is weaker to walk or do anything .but have you ever missed a dose? And have you ever had a seizure? The xanax do work very well for anxiety .but my God with all the withdrawls it causes .I hooe it will be easier for you .I would try to cut tiny peices off now if u can ...i dont know what I'm gonna do .I'm gonna have to break some off EA day too .dear jesus help us all !!!🙏😢🤗
@artzology Don’t know if my tachycardia health issues are related to your palpitation or not but… drs couldn’t find anything wrong for 10 yrs …..until I took matters into own hand. Got off all pre pkged. foods, all sugars, flours (All breads!) seed oil. Began to eat whole food, turned life around…lost 59#s. Feeling great, no more shortness of breath w tackycardia.🥳 Feel better….we are all so worth it🤗
how do you feel now? I mean do you forget easily like a symptom of dementia?
Excellent info. Many thanks for this Dr. Sullivan. I'm glad I found your channel.
This was such a thorough review. Thank you!
I was on it for sleep and anxiety for years, but when I tried to come off of it, I was in serious withdrawal for over a year and it was horrible. It is a good short time drug but not long-term.
You were on it for years. How many years do you consider short term? The discussion makes less and less to me. I think she just likes to hear herself talk.
OMG this is only my third video i have listened to i am 65 take all the things u mentioned i have seen a big change of forgetting everything ,why am i in this room getting slower and my health has gotten worse since i quit working please keep doing these they will help many people ,my question to you is if i stop taking all these things will things improve🤨😒😵💫😟thank you so much for what you are doing🥰😇
Do not stop cold turkey. Benzodiazepine withdrawal can cause seizures sometimes even being fatal
No they won't improve W/d symptoms may have protracted w/d for years..
I’m 53 and I have MCI. I’m on the Exelon patch for that and it’s working pretty well. I also have borderline diabetes/insulin resistance. I was in an extremely stressful, abusive relationship and he left. My doctor said the elevated cortisol kicked up my blood sugar and pushed me over the edge for these health conditions. I was also going through menopause during all this, which didn’t help. I have trouble with my ADLs and executive function, but I can do it. I’m just slower at things than other people and can’t pack a bunch of things into one day or all at once. It’s hard because people don’t understand and I don’t have much support because I’m still young for that and people can’t see that particular disability. I get extremely bad anxiety when I’m pressured, and I then run and isolate myself. Apathy is a big one. It’s very difficult to fight, but I do it. However, that also causes very bad anxiety. I can also look back and see that I had prodromal symptoms. Please give me the contact information that you mentioned because I can really benefit from a practitioner who understands and that I can trust.
You need to do a water fast. Heal it all. No money for Drs though
Thank you for providing this information.
Unfortunately our own doctors are not being taught enough about the adverse effects of benzodiazepines despite the fact that this information has been out there for years.
im doomed. ive been on clonazepam most of my life for anxiety. im 62 and starting to show signs of dementia. scary that alzheimers runs in my family, and now to learn that this will probably accelerate that outcome. They hand it out like candy with no questions asked. my thing is now that the possible damage is done i might as well stay on it for my anxiety and get my will in order as i know what will happen to me. They should have known about this years ago. i wouldnt have stayed on it. im scared now.
❤️🙏
@ kathycrawford...your memory may continue to decline if you remain on it.
@@cynthiadrolshagen4144 Benzos don't cause dementia so why scare her?? She's probably on other drugs that increase dementia risk.
I was prescribed xanax for my anxiety. It was the white 2mg bar. At first, I would take 1/4s, but that didnt help. That led to 1/2s, and within 2 weeks, it was a full bar at a time. The first time I took the entire white xanax 2mg bar, I had memory loss. I couldn't remember events throughout the day, I felt sleepy, unmotivated, and it made me depressed. After a few days of taking the entire bar, people noticed I was changing. I felt like a numb shell who couldn't remember basic things. I decided to stop taking xanax, flushed the remaining pills, and switched to a different clinic.
I eventually started seeing a therapist. After a few months, I felt confident in my self. Since then, I haven't had anxiety issues. I felt like the therapist really understands me. I felt like I wouldn't amount to anything, and she explained to me how everything we see, it's not as it seems. No matter how big or small, what i do matters, my family will always love and support me, and I will always be loved by the people around me. I'm simplifying a lot.
I'm glad the xanax didnt have any withdrawal symptoms. I wasnt even aware of withdrawals until this video. I'm glad I was too scared to take it regularly. I didnt like how I felt, but I realized it was better than being anxious and not wanting to leave my house. I hated life, but now, it's ok lol 🤪

What a great video. Spending any amount of time on the internet made me think my occasional use of 1mg Xanax before bed is the same as taking 30 Xanax pills and being addicted. It’s like people don’t understand that not all use will lead to abuse.
Xanax is just like alcohol in a pill form, not healthy to your brain
i have been on a 1mg ex release xanax for 10+ years and have never had to go up in strength...so is there a difference in reg xanax and extended release xanax?
Maybe if we were helped with the life situations that cause our anxiety, stress, depression instead of passing out pills and the life situations never change . What good is that ?
Thank you, very informative.
I feel like often times doctors either prescribe too much Xanax for some people or not at all for people who can really benefit and need it. I have been taking on average half a milligram a couple times a week for sleep for years now and I have never had any issues or side effects of any kind, and it has been incredibly helpful. Sometimes I would be unable to sleep during times when it is critical and even dangerous if I am not adequately rested and the Xanax has been a life saver. And in general I am much better rested and better functioning having access to it a couple times a week. But sometimes I have really struggled to get even this small amount prescribed which has been very detrimental to my well being and functioning.
You could have made your long story short. What should I take and what should I not take?
Important video thank-you. Love your work
amazing video
Thanks!
Love love this info💕💕💕💕
My mom has been on Zaman for 45 years. 90 years old now. Has a better memory and mind than I do
Love your information that we can understand
Very helpful. Thank you so much!
Great info. I use valium occasionally may be once a month along with Bentyl an anticholinergic and Imodium as i get stomach upset during intense anxiety.Bentyl is great but it does dry you out. I noticed that if i use a benzo like valium or klonopin i forget what i did when i took the medication. I use beta blockers these days with relaxation techniques.
I was prescribed Xanax after multiple miscarriages when I was younger. One of my doctors knew I had chronic insomnia and kept me on it. I’m now 55 and still on it because of GAD and PTSD. I’m trying to taper very slowly using the Ashton method with the help of my MD and therapist, but it’s extremely difficult. I got to a point where I wasn’t sleeping at all. I have no idea how to continue the tapering.
Very interesting. Thank you for the information.
I have cervical dystonia. I am taking 1/2 mg alprazolam and 5 mg cyclobenzaprine tid. My neurologist has tapered me down on alprazolam from 2 mg tid prescribed from another neurologist and hoping to get it down to 1/2 mg bid but I’m having more trouble with my CD when trying this. She said not to worry about the cyclobenzaprine but maybe I can start tapering off of that. I will sure check into this. Thank you!
💐 Thank you very much! 🙏🥰
Thank you! Important information.
Whoa!!! I have no choice in needing to take benzos and have had to for the last 19 YEARS due to an extremely rare neurological muscle disease I have called Stiff Person Syndrome. Only 1 or maybe 2 people out of every million people get this disease which causes severe, disabling, and veryyyyy painful muscle spasms that can last hours/days/and our lifetimes. These muscle spasms are so severe they can and do break bones/spinal damage as well due to them slamming into the spine. There are no other medications to treat this disease. and In my case, I do not show the antibodies where 60% are positive for GAD and 40% are negative. I am in the 40% group, so I do not qualify for the 'only' 2 other treatment options available, IVIG or plasmapheresis, but those do not always work either and you still need the same medications after.
I am 56 now, and I guess I am guaranteed, according to the statistics you found that I definitely 100% will end up with Dementia/Alzheimers. Guess I better prepare now while I can. There is not any way possible I can go without these meds, they are the first line of treatment. I would be bed-bound (and was!) while STILL suffering severe muscle spasms regardless. There is "quality of life" and needing the ability to function I do desire to try to keep!
I have heard the same thing from Dr. Boz here on UA-cam in her videos and live shows she puts on every Tuesday.
The hard thing IS when you have a disease as I do that does require these medications and you have no other way to treat them. Keto/Carnivore will not ever take this away. This is a central nervous system disorder and the wiring in our brain and spinal cord is wrong to begin with, thus causing this disease.
Seems like a bleak future as I see/look at it ahead! Yikes! I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, as the saying goes! The worst part is I have NO choice in the matter - this IS what I was dealt with in life...
Maybe I CAN work hard with my brain now, doing puzzles, intentionally going over the years and even current days remembering things purposely to "try" to delay the inevitable, IF IF that really does even work which I doubt because the brain does show changes per all the imaging they do and they can see it in the imaging.
Boy, this IS depressing knowledge in MY case!!! As if this disease is not enough already! Argh!!!
I am fully Keto, I track my glucose and ketones, and I keep my carbs as close to zero as possible. I AM taking action in that area and am successful. I do put a LOT of work into that with cooking and baking whole, real foods! The best thing I do and can control and focus on!
Thank you for all this info!
I heard Celine Dion talk about her diagnosis with this. God bless you.
Very good info

Thank you 🙏 for helping with ur teaching I appreciate it , my mom is dealing with dementia, and it is truly being given Xanax with her doctor at a nursing home, which I am trying to get them to get her off , please I need to know a alternative way
Thank you 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Great information albeit frightening. My wife has been overdosing on xanax for years.
Great. Fair disclosure, I’m a 60 yr old (very) complex patient. That includes heavy metal poisoning (3 types), radiation poisoning, 2 major TBI’s, and a very long term anoxia.
BUT - I take Xanax 3Xday for Myoclonic seizures, beyond just the twitches. This is per an EEG which ruled out epilepsy and showed 3 Myoclonus trigger locations. I started with Klonopin 3Xday but after two months developed some negative side effects. Hence the lateral shift to Xanax. Side effects permanently relieved. The thought is that I will be on it permanently for life.
So how screwed am I?
Oh, and a very severe PTSD from 20 yrs ago, also in another country.
How long does it take to recover after u stop taking the drug?does it impair cognition?effect on heart brain sex?
My doc had me on 10 MG a day for 27 years. I am tapering off. I am so spaced out
I wonder why some people get withdraw symptoms and some do not. I've taken xanax for 30 years. I've gone off of it when trying to get pregnant and during pregnancy. I never experienced any withdraw systems. Since i take it for anxiety and sleep, it did leave me a few days of restless sleep, but nothing else.
So I came off 2 low dose Lorazepam a day because I was worried about my brain health. Only to notice the OTC muscle relaxant Methocarbamol on the Category 3 list . My TMJD is difficult to manage. Would I be better off switching back to Lorazepam?
My husband is 77 years old and is on 3 or 4 meds for depression and anxiety. His memory is gojng and he has developed tremors! Im interested in any help I can get! Your video was excellent!
Xanax acts just like alcohol
How bout a 60yr old female with both parents dying from dimentia.....lewybody/alzheimer's big time behavior changes could it be frontotemperal dimentia
I haven't been able to remember names all my life !
Very informative! Thank you :)
Since I've been on lorazepam, my memory has become extremely bad, usually when the dose has worn off. I'm 32 and I am very, very frightened about how on earth I can get off it because I'm already having seizure like activity since becoming severely tolerant to it. I'm also on mirtazapine 7.5mg, also sure this is causing memory loss too.
Nope you're too young. Benzos work on GABA specifically GabaA neurotransmitter, complete breakdown of frontal lobes which dementia targets doesn't start until age 65,yes some juvenile cases have been documented however the cases of that in some 32 is next to impossible, Late 30's almost pushing 40 is the earliest and even that's a stretch. You're cognitive ability and memory is bad because that's literally a after effect of benzos, no one who's on benzos longer then recommended which is 2-4 weeks walks away from the drug without having cognitive and memory issues. Good news is once you're off, that all corrects it's self. Benzos don't case permanent damage so you're safe
@@GCT1990 Bullshit, there are MANY benzo users who have permanent cognitive damage and I'm including young benzo users who took low doses for a short period of time and tapered off slowly. Some of these people are still damaged 10 plus years later.
I totally came off 1mg Lorazipam 4 x a day for 10 years, now replaced with a 70% lower dose of Diazepam. It can be done. Not sure if I can get to zero Diazepam. Definitely memory issues at just 51.. and slower language processing. Using Brednesen ReCode protocol + vielight therapy.
The PA for my aunt saved her from drugs provided by her doctor for bladder issues that had nasty side effects for which she got further medication. Sometimes PAs are more hip than GPs.
My neighbor’s been on Xanax for 20 years now and it’s sad seeing her decline. Her parents were sharp as tacks and approached 100 with no medication aside from clean, whole foods and good exercise. My neighbor suffers from anxiety but she refuses CBT, relaxation, etc. because “she trusts the science”… all the way to an early grave.
I briefly had a prescription to deal with a week-long issue that I knew about ahead of time. Honestly, I didn’t like Xanax at all. It turned down the volume on the stress radio but maybe psychosomatically turned down the speed of my brain, too. I wouldn’t take it again unless to save my life. I’d definitely try therapy or meditation as a first line measure.
I'm still W/d from 13 mg Xanax and 90 kpins plus opana but I got the opana back finally o wasn't eating was dying getting sicker and sicker when I get my script back I'm never Sharing my meds again I swear to GOD ..
Thankyou.Good
SSRIS are additive. And Chronic stress is worse than memory loss.
Now all this is really worrying as ive been taking Xanax for a long time, and I have tolerance withdrawal and a foggy indecisive brain, I'm still sharp but not as sharp as i used to be. Definitely got a lot of problems from this drug
@bigtee6037 Shut up.
Great video, I never knew Zantac antacid could cause dementia.
Xanax ❤
Once I tried xanax as a party drug for a couple of days in a row. During those days my memory went on and off like a lamp without me noticing it or thinking about it.
It wasn't until a few days without it that my memory of not noticing the memory loss and not noticing myself becoming dumber went back.
I take .5 there times a day been driving to work for years and i ride a sport motorcycle every weekend. I feel more relax and anjoy the ride.
A high stressful job can do a number on you with this med more relax to do the tech work and multibtask all day.
If you're a doctor, then how come you know nothing about how to interpret studies? You mention that the risk for cognitive impairment is increased by 100% in adults that take one or more "severe anticholinergics" for more than 60 days. And then you say that if you're taking a drug that's "high in anticholinergics" for more than 60 days, you have a 100% chance of having cognitive impairment. Having a 100% increased risk of getting a disease is NOT the same as having a 100% chance of having it. How the hell do you not know this? Unfortunately, since most Americans are rather ignorant, they won't be able to accurately assess this misinformation you're putting out and they'll just assume that since you have Dr. in your name, that you must know what you're talking about.
My input. Xanax made be depressed. If you take a few extra over a couple months, get disgusted with yourself and, the critical part here!, you suddenly flush them, you can have a seizure. I was told I needed a little CPR because I stopped breathing. Now I do not remember the seizure. What I do remember is the neurologist being angry I had gone to the medical school library to find out what happened. Maybe he wanted to tell me I had a withdrawal seizure. What I do remember is three months of loss of half my brain cells.
Haven’t taken extra meds for anything since. It was 1994. Am afraid to take Advil for a headache.
One more thing: make sure you have a psychiatrist who is careful for your health in general. I had a drug-dealer of a psychiatrist. Haven’t seen him since either.
My CPR giver and ER driver was getting ready to go to work. A little later and I’d have been by myself when I had that seizure and stopped breathing.
I'll recommend you to this dude he sells the best of mushrooms, DMT chocolate bars Xanax MDMA Lean, LSD and lots more and his shipping is discreet**
Man's on telegram
Recently diagnosed with early non-Alzheimer’s dementia. I’m taking the path of getting off meds. Wish I’d never taken anything related.
How do we DM you?
You need to take Xanax everyday for 10 years then see how good your brain is!
Holy smokes is right! I’ve started watching your vids recently… omg info I did NIT know but should have. My recent dry eyes 👀, I just couldn’t figure out… well, frequent antihistamines. I had not known my otc antihistamines were benzos 😵💫🙅🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️. Tnku 👍
Over the counter antihistamines are not benzos.
Ugh 9:09 I take 2 mg a day was on 3 mg at one pint was on 6 mg Xanax and 20 mg Valium but weaned down to 10 mg V and 2 1/4 mg X
Statins will do a number on you too ! Medicine is a big profit business and the patient is on the bottom of the Medical /Medicine Industrial /complex.
xanax helps a lot because life is shit
Does chronic sleeplessness cause dimentia
Hi ,to start I am 57 and not a illegal drug user and I try and look after myself. I would like to say more and like to say that my medications and situation is worse than most but it is the only way I can live .I would like to tell you the medications that I take perhaps a little later .Thanks
Can you heal from dementia? 8:20
I’m tapering off Xanax now 0:28
It is such a complicated yet simple medication that seems to fix SO many issues. All spine issues? Xanax helps. Headache? Xanax will help. Back pain? Xanax will help. Sleep? Xanax. Xanax? Xanax....
- This is exactly what happened to my dad... I also think methadone is lead to dementia.
It would just help me make music and get through the day I'm about to start working in the hospital and idk how the hell 2 mgs would do so much at least 4 mgs your a lightweight....
I believe it made me depressed.

I’m on 2 :( I’m getting offBeen on over a decade. I feel like a fool.
So am I just hopeless now
Same man I'm thinking death is my only way out
@@takenldiaz9661 I’m not listening to this. I’m tapering and doing pretty good.
Not hopeless at all. I had extremely high stress for many years, GAD and PTSD which I don’t say lightly. I came off Xanax / Lorazipam 1mg 4 x per day. Now on 70% lower dose of diazepam and following dr bredesen ReCode protocol, + using MIP Vielight BPM 2 x day, and continuing to lower dosage. It can be done. I highly recommend keto type diet, exercise, light therapy, magnesium L-Threonate and very high dose fish oil.
you should hear what dr jordan petersen has to say about xanax........not good
Where do I find that?
that’s nothing. you should hear what he has to say about fat women and transgender people
@@discdoggiethat’s nothing. You should hear what they have to say about him.

You can tell a lot of Xanax users are watching this with how irritated they are with you giving a detailed explanation.
Why would they be irritated when she says Xanax does not increase dementia risk unless you're also taking an anticholinergic?? I'm guessing they didn't actually watch the entire video.
Nope...
You are wonderful! I’m in La Quinta Ca. Near Palm Desert as well.
Can you recommend a doctor like you? You’re one in a million.
I had chemo for early state fallopian tube cancer, high grade serous in 2020-21. As a result I have P neuropathy.
I’ve been experiencing internal tremors which are bothersome especially when more intense some days. I also have a feeling of motion. So together can be very unsettling. Have you heard of this happening….today was very bad, the feeling of motion, like after getting off a cruise.
I had an MRI last month and it was clear, my internist was very pleased. I just feel like there’s nothing I can do, but I do deep breathing and it does subside before going to sleep, grateful!
I’m also grateful that this cancer was discovered early. I was up with my head pounding and internal vibrations. Doctors don’t know why. Prob from nerve damage. At least I’m relieved not something worse. I don’t have symptoms for MS, Parkinson’s.
Look forward to hearing from you doctor. ❤
