In the last 10 days I've dropped from 6mg a day of sub to 2mg a day. The drop from 6 to 4 took 4 days to complete. The first 2 days had virtually zero symptoms. The third day i felt a little off and didn't sleep. The 4th day I was hurting but 3mg of Ativan between my morning and evening dose made it easy. I woke up feeling perfect on the 5th day.
So I immediately dropped to 2mg that day which was yesterday. Today is the second day at 2mg and I feel normal. I expect to feel bad at some point but I thought it would have hit by now.
I'm still dosing twice a day. at 4mg it was 2mg in the am 2mg in the PM. Now at 2mg it's 1mg am 1mg pm. My idea was to compress the withdrawal into the day time and into the half-life Ativan can cover in one dose. Do you think that's why it's been so easy? I'm really thinking of dropping to 1mg tommorow. With just 1 dose in the morning.
I feel stupid for being so afraid to get off this shit. I had a horrible time when I got forced off five years ago but maybe even a half ass taper like this can be effective.
Another strange thing. I kind of enjoy the feeling of extremely light withdrawal. It makes music sound better and more emotional. This experience is weird.
