I understand that you want the stuff out of your system. I got really frustrated at the pace I needed to use in my taper -- I wanted to just say the heck with it and stop all at once; I wanted to be done with it!! But it seems like these speedier cutbacks are making it so much harder on you than it needs to be. You're experiencing some real agony here and a slower pace would alleviate that a bit. After all, a slower taper does still get the job done.

I shouldn't push it so fast. I'm just so tired of this. Got to 75mgs and done great getting there. Then the 75 to 37.5 went pretty good. It's that last little bit that is kicking my rear. All I got to do is take a few beads out and bang all hell breaks out.
