Depending on the daily dosage and the length of time one has been taking them, the withdrawal symptoms can be quite severe and very unpleasant. It's recommended tapering off gradually to minimize any withdrawal symptoms.

I have to add to this answer that is not the "unpleasant symptoms" you have to worry about. it is extremely dangerous to just stop taking any Benzodiazapine. Yes you will feel horrible but when you just STOP taking them your blood pressure goes up. You will most likely have a seizure at best or have a fatal stroke. It is nothing to fool around with. If you need to stop taking them it should be in the hospital in a detox center, that is the only safe way to stop taking any Benzo.

Probably not. You're more likely to experience mild to severe anxiety and restlessness, depending on how high of a dose of Xanax you were taking.

I would not recommend taking Xanax and Meth together. Xanax mixed with methamphetamine can easily stop your heart or your respiratory system. If you do take Xanax while spun, take a lower dose then you would usually take. Just be on the safe side.
