Well hun, don't let these forums scare ya too much as what to expect. Some of us here, that were on sub, did CT... and wds were awful! But you've tapered down a good bit! So pat yourself on the back for that much! Woot Woot! The hardest part of wds off subs is normally the rls, but after about 5 days that slowly starts to ease up. I'll be honest it took 16 days for me to finally feel 100% but everyone is different. I've done detox off subs twice and it sux ... if you have n e questions message me or something. I'd be happy to help. Good luck sweetheart! I'm routing for ya!

of your down to only 1mg id say go for it if rl is the worst of your wd id say you can do it. be glad you got down so low im sure you know noone gets out unscathed by wd but rl is a far cry from ct wd. you can do it just remember its temporary it will go away.small price to pay to have your life back. if you had the flu or pulled a muscle it would be painful for at least a week and people survive that every day. dont let fear keep you stuck. if you got this far you can do this. good luck!
