>Johnny:
try to hang in.. I went from 7.5mg to 3.75mg each for 2months.. then now to 2mg.. I think this way is safer.. I did have some insomnia when i went from 7.5 tp 3.75mg but just sucked it up.. and didnt let the tirdness suck me in.. again I just told the acupunturist and he did treatment for insomnia and it straightened it right out..hang in there

I have been on 7.5 for some months now. I tell you that when I was off for about 10 days I felt much more depressed AFTER I went back on. But, when I was off I slept very little and that took a toll. It was pretty bad for quite a few weeks. I have been up and down and I wonder if it is because I split the soltabs? It feels like side effects right now, but I am feeling more anxiety at this time. It is so frustrating and I really want to wean off.
