Yep. That is the way I do it. Even if I am changing meds, like Effexor to Wellby, I take a little ativin to smooth things over.>With the SRI drugs, I think this has an added advantage of preventing a kindling effect and may shorten the withdrawal time. But that's a personal theory of mine

I think kindling effects are real and must be handled to avoid shocking the CNS. If you do not attend to them you are shooting yourself in the foot and setting up a series of events that will
make your condition worse long term, or cause you to destabalize, or have a really rough time stopping meds.
