Surprisingly

Hello friends :)
So tapering was def the best choice. I had VERY little symptoms when I actually quit. The mental part was WAY worse-but funny enough, I don't crave any now. I'm a lucky girl. They upped my elavil to 25/night and that's helping with the severity of migraines but not the frequency which *****. Dr told me to take Benedryl when I get them-helps with nausea and sleep.
Thanks for those who have supported me! It's so appreciated.
Has anyone heard from Today30? She was a huge supporter and I've lost touch....

Congratulations ! I did it too but like Sara said don't let your guard down for a second ! You will still have withdrawal symptoms but for sure they will be more manageable then just quitting from say 80mg a day . Stay strong Jimmy

I am glad the tapering worked but never let your Guard Down.  This addiction is sly cunning and baffling~
