All these ADs work like that. Drs say they are not addictive but they are. You have to wean really slow, especially when you get to lower doses. I would recommend cutting no more than 1 to 2 mgs a month and even slower as you get lower. Maybe 1 to 2 mgs every other month. The chemicals in our brains are completely altered when taking these drugs and it takes awhile for the brain to know how to function properly without it. It is better to slowly wean so your brain can adjust as you get lower on the dose and finally off. Hope this helps some.
