Hi there,
Would you mind sharing your tapering schedule with us. To try and answer your question with limited information I’d say no, it’s not normal but there are variables that must be taken into account. Most people, in my opinion try stopping too quickly. I find that odd because some people take it for 10-30+ years, but want off it immediately or within a couple to a few months. So it depends on your original dose, the length of time you’ve been taking it and the rate of each taper. Doctors often suggest lowering by 50%. I haven’t yet heard of anyone getting off this medication using a 50% taper schedule. I personally believe it’s not only irresponsible but dangerous.
Wishing you luck,
Jake
