Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic
If you want to stop benzodiazepine, you can use sedative antidepressant like mirtazapine or trazodone. That would help you to quit alprazolam or xanax without any withdrawal symptoms. You can also try longer acting benzodiazepine like diazepam and with time gradually you can stop it. In case, you need further help, you can ask.
Thanks
