For many of us struggling with withdrawal it may be (as I am finding out) that we have to go back on the medication before making another run at it. I stopped cold turkey and had no idea about tapering and of the degrees that I may have to go to in that endeavor.Isn't that not a srategy that many are having to do as we become more familiar with all of this. I mean, if I'm on my back and not able to get up (even though my goal is to be off of the medication), wouldn't it be better to at least get back on my feet so I can work it again later. Simply because we may not succeed this round doesn't mean that our goal has changed. Therefor any strategy that will ultimately help someone who wants to stop should be on this board. I have struggled with not taking any medicine for the past 3 months knowing that stopping the way I did is not the way to go. So, for those who have succeeded IN WITHDRAWAL this is a good place to help others.
