Ok so I've been on subs for almost 3 months now. Am on 0.8mg. I started off from 6mg then quickly reduced down to 2.5mg, was hoovering on the dose until this week. Now would it be better to jump off or taper further? any experiences and opinions welcome!

thanks!
 
I recommend tapering. But if you do jump off it probably won't be too obscenely bad. Expect about 2 weeks of discomfort. Followed by a period of insomnia and depression.
 
Thanks!

even if I was on low doses I would still suffer somewhat? anybody give a tapering recommendation.

p.s in these 3 months I also missed days of consuming subs too, don't know if that lessen the affects post-jump!
 
I'd taper to .02 and lower then jump off.
Doing this you'll have a greatly reduced WD as crimsonjunk says.

All the best with it - there is no better way I'm aware of.
