I tried cutting a half into a half, but last time I did I got horrid night sweats. I will be frank, I am stopping this bad drug because of the "delayed ejaculation" side effect.
Well I have been cold turkey for two days. I don't like it at all. I am feeling very muzzy. (Mentally fuzzy) I will do this!
OK so I am doing the same thing as you did and I am on 1/3 of 50mg. I feel a little spacey and unable to clearly articulate myself. Fuzzy head space I guess. Did this go away and how long did it take until you felt normal?
Don't give up! At one time or another we all needed this drug. It helped me tremendously. It keep me going for a long time. Now I don't need it anymore and have discussed this with my Dr. He recommended tapering off every other day but I got real bad headaches doing that so I went back on it for another month. After finding this site, hearing everyone's story I decided to cut them in half. It has worked so far. Now I am taking a half of a half I will admit I feel a little freaky but it is nothing I can't or won't handle. I just want you to know this site helped me and it will help you too. Good Luck.
