Soo Im bored and thought I would update as things are going pretty good. Posting really helps me keep track of my progress and I would recommend it to anyone whose tapering. I am now at 62 hours since my last dose of .2mg! Yesterday was a little more difficult than today. I was anxious in the morning, a little restless and lethargic but had to go to work. I brought some subs just in case, but ended up grinding through the day and doing fine. The day dragged on but didn’t really consider taking the subs at all. I feel asleep fine last night but awoke at 4am and couldn’t go back to sleep. Got about 5 hours. I felt great physically just couldn’t calm the mind. I got an awesome surf sesh in this morning and have felt great all day except for some mild restlessness. I find when I get restless, instead of taking sub I take .1 of clonodine. It is really amazing how well it works. I feel like I am on day one right now and gonna glide through to tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed at least.
To me it seems like skipping days might be better than say getting down to .1 or lower. I think it mentally trains you to not be conditioned in feeling like you need your dose everyday. I think it just speeds up the process and makes it easier once you make the final jump.
