My opinion due to a ton of life experience with these meds. I probably know more about these meds than a medical professional. The majority of medical professionals are clueless about the drugs they prescribe, and even more clueless about getting their patients off these poisons if needed. Most people don’t need to stay on physch meds for life.

You're so right!! My GP is clueless about how hard it is to get off this. When I told her over a year ago that I wanted off them, she said, "Why? Why not just stay on them?" That was her response. So I've been stepping slowly down by myself. But I'm having a horrible time getting off the final 37.5 mg.
