I totally understand your feelings.
My feeling and experience is that, better to be in less discomfort so the body can relax and recover a bit, not to mention your psyche.
With that said, consider taking OTC med “like Tylenol for Arthritis “ to help while tapering. Is it worse in the morning or late afternoon? I was/am able to take 2 “as needed”. APPROVED by my Dr.
CHECK WITH YOUR DR first. Good luck
