Hi Ed,
I did everything wrong when tapering. I tapered 3 mgs of Ativan in a month and then 3 weeks later I tapered 80 mgs of Geodon in 3 weeks. The geodon masked somme of the w/d symptoms. About 2 days later coming off the Geodon my symptoms were full blown. I have been off of Ativan for 8 months now.
