Ellimae, sorry you're going through the crap that everyone else on here seems to be experiencing. I will let someone else who's been through this advise you on how long to expect symptoms. I had stopped for 4 days (after only being on 3 weeks and STILL having withdrawal symptoms) but was advised by someone on the boards here to go back on and taper off. I imagine at your stage, 5 days off, it would be pointless to do that. I've now been tapering for 2 weeks, taking the 30 mg caps every other day and dumping out an increasing # of granules each time. (Counting those granules is like counting grains of sand!) I still fear I will have nausea when I completely stop.
