Thank you all for your replies.

Yes I'm under a psychiatrist, but he doesn't want to reduce it in smaller amounts, each tablet is 75mg so he's reducing by 75mg each time. The only thing he'll do is extend the time between the reductions. But surely all this does is extend the amount of time I have to deal with this withdrawal?

Why not just stop it right away and just have to cope with the withdrawal for a relatively short time than the months it takes to withdraw?

I mean like if I'm going to suffer the withdrawal then why do I have to drag it out?

I mean what worse could happen? I don't see how the withdrawal could be any worse so why do I have to suffer it for months?

I'm not being funny I'm genuinely interested in if there is a reason anyone knows of?
