> good luck keep us postedThanks for your reply Crazychick, my friend's doctor had originally told her to go cold turkey, he was totally unrealistic about the withdrawal effects. My friend is a nurse so she has some idea but not much, as she is not psychiatrically trained. Her GP has recommended she go on Half Inderal for anxiety which she now suffers from, which she never had a problem with before. She also, had taken the drug for depression. How did you taper? Many thanks
