Wow, thanks a lot Romeo, It did not occur to me to even ask for a lower dose from my doc. I wonder how long it is gonna take me now that I am on 3 mg. I seem to be holding steady. (minus the usual lack of energy and depression) It has only been 3-4 days maybe 5. I think now may be the time to start taking note of my progression.
I will toss the idea of counseling. Have you heard of anyone doing Bikrams Yoga while tapering?
Oh, and am I good in this forum or should I move to another page? I am totally new to this stuff, not ever entirely sure how I was lucky enough to discover this place.
One more thing, I noticed that it may be possible that I am not really getting a full 3 mg. of the drug because of the absorption thing? Is this true? I have noticed that, even today, I got a little buzz from just the 3 mg. I took this am. Surprised how this is possible when I reduced my dose by 1/4 over the past 2 weeks. Must really be powerful stuff considering those facts.
Thanks again for the info. I really have nobody else to talk to about this issue. (nor would I feel comfortable, no one would understand unless in these shoes)
