It's been a few weeks of this (slowly tapering off, and then taking an emergency top up when it gets too much to handle). My dr says it is all expected effects, and that it will end, but it's been very difficult. Sigh. Anyone else relate???
My dr also told me this is one of the worst meds to withdrawl from...

Typically if I get off of an AD, it's a slow taper so I don't feel many withdrawal effects. I'd double ck with a pharmacist since you're slowly tapering and still feeling horrible! Best of luck and hope it gets better!!
