Xanax Addiction Treatment in Laguna Beach, CA
Xanax Addiction Treatment in Laguna Beach, CA
Xanax (alprazolam) is one of the most commonly prescribed benzodiazepines in the U.S.—used to treat anxiety and panic disorders. But despite its legitimate medical use, Xanax carries a high risk of dependence and addiction, especially when taken long-term or in higher-than-prescribed doses. If you or a loved one is struggling to stop using Xanax, you are not alone—and recovery is possible.
At Laguna Beach Recovery, we offer specialized Xanax addiction treatment in a peaceful coastal setting. Through medical detox, residential inpatient care, mental health support, and holistic therapies, we guide clients through a safe and empowering healing process.
Understanding Xanax Addiction
Xanax works by calming the central nervous system, reducing anxiety and inducing relaxation. However, when used habitually, it can create physical dependence in as little as a few weeks. Over time, users often need more of the drug to feel the same effects, leading to dangerous cycles of misuse.
Signs of Xanax Addiction:
- Taking higher doses than prescribed
- Intense cravings for the drug
- Memory problems or confusion
- Drowsiness, slurred speech, or coordination issues
- Doctor shopping or running out of prescriptions early
- Withdrawal symptoms between doses
- Using Xanax with alcohol or other substances
Xanax addiction can be deceptive—it often starts with a prescription but can quickly escalate. Professional treatment is essential for a safe and lasting recovery.
The Dangers of Quitting Xanax Cold Turkey
Unlike some other drugs, quitting Xanax abruptly can be extremely dangerous. Sudden withdrawal can lead to life-threatening complications, including seizures, hallucinations, and psychosis. This is why medical supervision is critical during the detox process.
At Laguna Beach Recovery, our 24/7 medically monitored detox provides a safe environment for tapering off Xanax gradually and comfortably. We tailor the detox process to each individual, using appropriate medications and therapies to reduce withdrawal severity and prevent complications.

Xanax Withdrawal Symptoms
Withdrawal from Xanax may begin within hours of the last dose and can last for several days or weeks, depending on usage history.
Common withdrawal symptoms include:
- Rebound anxiety and panic attacks
- Insomnia or disrupted sleep
- Muscle pain and stiffness
- Tremors and sweating
- Mood swings and irritability
- Nausea or vomiting
- Hallucinations or psychosis
- Seizures (in severe cases)
Our team of addiction specialists and medical professionals closely monitors every client to ensure their comfort, safety, and stability throughout detox and early recovery.

Dual Diagnosis Treatment for Anxiety and Xanax Addiction

At Laguna Beach Recovery, we provide dual diagnosis treatment to help clients manage both their substance use and mental health symptoms. Our licensed therapists and psychiatric team collaborate to create a fully integrated care plan that promotes holistic healing.
