I've had about a week at 150 mg, down from 225. Not too bad so far. More difficult to get up in the morning. On the weekend, my dogs get me up early then I go back to bed for 2.5 more hours. This is not necessarily bad; probably nets me eight hours of sleep.
I'm splitting the 150 into two doses. I do notice some of the head-turning weirdness, like my head is hollow ro something, toward the end og the first dose period, ~8 hrs. Maybe a little hypotension when I stand up from being really relaxed.
I'm going to hang at 150 for a few more days and then shave off another 37.5 split between the two doses.

On the plus side, I feel pretty good and have a bit more motivation to get up and get some things done, a bit more libido. So I still feel this is the thing to do for now.
