> Okay if you need to taper down from Manerix, but I didn't. I've had to taper *VERY* sloooowly from both Luvox & Paxil, but I just quit the Manerix - no taper at all. I'd only been taking it about a month or two also. Did the doctor say it HAD to be tapered down?
Yes he did. I figured he would. It would be at the rate of 150 mg. per week, which means it would take me 3 weeks until I'm off it. How I wish to God I could just quit it cold turkey, but I'm trusting his judgement here. Every minute is the worst hell I've ever been through.I can't wait to get this drug out of my system. If I haven't said it already--assuming that the Aurorix (Manerix) did in fact worsen my depression--I will look back upon this as having taken poison--that's how deathly sick I feel from it.
