Are you still on 37.5mg? If your planning to come off completely please go much slower. Often it is more important to go even slower at the end especially when you have taken it for so long. Never cut x mg from start to finish. When lowering that way your percentage of titration varies considerably. SLOW AND CONSISTENT is always best. I’m not talking slow here, I’m talking VERY SLOW, SLLLOOOOOOWWWWW.
It may be a pain to go so slow but believe me the the reward couldn’t be greater! Usually withdrawal symptom free.
Remember, SLOW

Thanks so much for the encouragement and support. I’ll be journaling my process so maybe I can help others after this journey! 💕
