How To Withdraw From Xanax?

My doctor prescribed be 0.25 mg of xanax for my anxiety. I ve been taking half of a 0.25 mg pill of xanax once a day for 10 days. I know it s a low dosage but is it safe for me to stop taking it completely as I do not want to take this medication anymore. Will I experience any withdrawal symptoms if I do?

You can safely discontinue Xanax as soon as possible.
You are taking very low dose for short period of time. So chances of developing withdrawal symptoms is unlikely
