@soozejb I’m not a dr just a patient like you. 10 years is a long time. I’ve been on mirt for 5 months total. First 15 mg for 3 months, 7.5 for 7 weeks and now cut 7.5 to 3.75 now for 4 weeks tomorrow. For you stay on 7.5 until it settles and stabilizes. I can’t tell you how long but most psychiatrists will say just wean as long as you can then stop. You don’t want to stop abruptly! Anxiety will kick in. I’m still on 3.75 mg as my dr put me on busiprone 10 mg twice a day to help come off it. Stay in touch

@visionsofelvis following because I am in the same situation. I will be interested in what kind of answers you get! Hang in there

Exactly. Slowly. Ran my basic plan past 2 of my doctor's. Slow has worked quite well so far about
8 months in. A few ugh the last few days might not be related. Dealing with it by adjusting activity output. Glad you added a keep in touch note.
Appreciate your input.
