Hello,
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
You are probably getting the withdrawal effect or it may be the reappearance of the disease for which Xanax had been started.
you should review to your physician and try to taper more slowly say 2mg/day for a month under supervision and see if that helps you.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.
