take your time gnarly, its definitely best to taper off the 'done like we talked about. done take more time and patience.
its only normal to start feeling the wd's as you taper..........it tells you how bad they would be if you went total CT !! i made the mistake of doing a brainless 2-3 day taper, when I should have made a plan like you, it would have been easier.
just stick with the program, and in time you will be ready to jump ship !!
plus keep this thread updated and we all will look for you
