Same here! I finally got down to taking half of a 25mg tablet.... Did that for about a month...Fourth day now of discontinuing..... Horrid withdrawal symptoms, including terrifying nightmares etc and vertigo type feelings with the brain fuzz. Always before, I would give up giving up, but I'm trying ain to stick it out. It seems as if, once you are given this poison, they've got you for life!?!!

Don’t cut pills in half, cut them in quarters or eighths. It will take longer but you’ll have fewer if any symptoms. It will be worth it.
