Are you still at about 28 mg? I'm going to cut back to a quarter pill (~ 9.4 mg.) from a half a pill sometime in the next few days. I'm a little scared too. I'll take a St. John's Wort capsule that evening I cut back and maybe on some other nights if I feel I need it. Ginkgo also helps a lot of people (not to mention Prozac) so these are all options if the effects get too bad. So far though I have to knock on wood because they've been very mild but I haven't gone off of it completely yet.Kara
