The micro tapering methods and Ashton method (yes, I've read that) are all easier said than done. The fact is, K is very very addictive in its own right, when coupled with genetics, length of time on the medication, each person's unique make-up etc.... there is no "one size fits all".

I have micro-tapered before, and yes 0.25mg every three weeks feels HUGE as we all know the half life and so on. It does lead to irritability, some semi-suicidal thoughts alll amidst real external pressures (job, family, etc).

In the end, the few times I have tried, I buckled and went back to 1.5mg. I chalked it up as an EXCUSE on jobm, family etc.... however, as my therapist would say "cart before horse". I need to get off the med. Anyone on here trying same knows how really really really hard it is.

There *never* seems to be a good time, but I believe that had I gotten off this years ago, IU would be in a better place now. My PLAN is to taper at that schedule. Easier said than done. But this time, unlike past years, I am committed becuase it has ruined enough of my life.
