Thanks so much for the advice and for your story! I just saw my doc again this morning, after having some terrible breakdowns this weekend. He really didn't tell me anything new and just told me to decrease by another 37.5 for this week and alternate it next week...and to call him if I absolutely can't handle it. Gee Thanks! I know I should see a new dr. but it is such a pain in the you-know-what!! I am dropping from 75 to 37.5 tomorrow, so wish me luck and I wish all of you luck and continued success.
PS...I don't know if you realize, but I am a woman. hahahaha I noticed you made reference to a man at the end of your post. =)
PPS...really...who stays on one med for 8 continuous years...only because I was terrified to go through the withdrawls and they didn't care, just kept giving me more prescriptions. He also didn't not believe any of my withdrawl symptoms...what makes them think they know more about what we go through than our selves???
