based on my experience, it's just patient tapering, slowly reducing the amount you consume, once you make a reduction, keep with that reduction until you feel normal (well), only then continue with the reduction process until you realize you aren't consuming it anymore, consult with your psychiatrist

This has been my case as well. Finally discovered that I cannot reduce my amt until my withdrawal symptoms are gone which sometimes take two or more months! Finally on 37.5 mg for almost a month and still having trembling, anxiety and fatigue. Will gradually get off it by using a compounded liquid. You must go very slowly and BE PATIENT . It’s so hard but have faith you can do it. BE STRONG🙏🏼
