Welcome! For starters, you can do this thing. Having in house support will be good for both of you. From what I've read, tapers are somewhat difficult, if your will power alone is what you depend on. I kind of tapered from about 12 10mg pills per day. I cut the dose in half every day. Day 2=6, 3=3, 4=1-1/2. I honestly don't know what's the best. There really is no best way. Sooner or later, you will get to zero per day. I have no doubt that tapers string w/d's out longer, to a lesser degree. It's like moving a hundred pound rock 100 yards. Should you move it one yard a day, for 100 days, or pick it up, and carry it the hundred yards, and be done. I believe you experience the same w/d pain in the end. Stretch it out, or bite & be done in a few. Just my opinion, and what worked for me, 61 days ago. Good luck.

Welcome to the Forum! You have indeed found a great place to get answers, support and new found friends. I kicked Hydros back in Dec. It can be done and you both can do this. Be sure to check out the new Tracker found in your profile. Ask all the questions you want. There are no stupid ones, except maybe the ones you don't ask. LOL
Sorry for not answereing your ? right. We both just started tapering 3 days ago down to 8. No sleep. I couldnt imagine going cold turkey.
Thanx
Welcome...I am glad you and your wife are kicking this...I was on those too...How long have you been off them..
