[quote=Anonymous]My doctor had me taper off over the course of a couple months. She said that the longer the taper, the higher the success rate. I didn't find it too bad to come off them, but after a few months of not taking them, I found myself more edgy than I liked. I didn't fly off the handle, but I remember feeling like I wished I could slam cupboard doors or break a dish now and then. It was kind of odd because I didn't remember ever feeling like that before starting on the meds. Eventually I decided to go back on the 10mg dose. Life is just a little better on it for me. Every once in a while I feel like I should stop taking it again -- but then life happens (mom got cancer, I got diagnosed with progressive illness for which there is no cure, got divorced). Maybe you'll inspire me to try coming off it again. Life is pretty good right now.[/quote]
