Xanax Rehab

Today, Xanax is not only one of the most popular benzodiazepine medications in the country, but it is one of the top prescribed medications in the world. While many people who are addicted to Xanax are able to obtain it through their healthcare providers, others purchase it illegally. Regardless of where a person is obtaining his or her Xanax from, abusing it can be extremely dangerous and even deadly. The longer that Xanax is abused, the more likely it becomes for someone to develop an addiction to it, which can require professional resources to treat.

    What Does a Xanax Addiction Look Like?

    Xanax is a central nervous system depressant, meaning that it works to slow down basic systems in the body, such as the cardiovascular and nervous systems. By doing this, the physical and psychological effects that are produced when anxiety occurs are lessened. However, when someone is addicted to Xanax, the depressant effects of this medication can produce the following:

    • Extreme drowsiness
    • Dizziness 
    • Poor balance
    • Problems with memory
    • Mood swings

    In general, those who are addicted to Xanax tend to appear “drunk” or “sedated”. When someone is addicted to Xanax, he or she might appear in this way often because they are regularly under the influence. But those are not the only defining characteristics of a Xanax addiction, as being addicted to this drug can also cause:

    • Social withdrawal
    • Lack of interest in previously enjoyed activities 
    • Problems at work or school
    • Increased interaction with the law
    • Chronic unemployment
    • Regular conflicts with the majority of friends and family members
    • Changes in mood, sleep patterns, and eating habits
    • Financial issues
    • Neglect of responsibilities 
    • Poor hygiene and housekeeping

    Those addicted to Xanax often struggle with wanting to stop use but being unable to do so, continuing to use despite related consequences, and putting oneself and/or others in danger when under the influence. 

    Addiction is a chronic, relapsing disease of the brain, meaning that even if a person wants to stop, actually being able to do so can be near impossible without the help of professionals. At our Xanax rehab in Lexington, KY, we can help those addicted to this drug to not only stop using, but to maintain their sobriety by helping them lay a strong foundation for their recovery.
