[Lu...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I had been dropping by .005ml (1 mg/100 ml solution) and slowed down at .035. Does anyone know how low is the normal to go before you can walk off? My sx are minimum now that I’m cutting by .002ml /day. Would appreciate any feedback?

[So...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 No idea about K, Valium is my beast...I would post in the K support group thread and see what people say. Congratulations on being ready to jump soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[wa...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 "Recommended jump dose" is 0.025 MG K. Some people jump sooner and do fine, some people jump at 0.025 and do not do fine, some people "walk off" at 0.001 mg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ni...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Wave said it perfect, there’s only a recommendation on when to jump. It’s really up to yourself and your symptoms and if you feel you’re ready. K is my demon too so I just literally recently jumped at 0.125 mgs but I wasn’t experiencing many new symptoms that I had associated with my tolerance WD so decided that it was time to get off. But again everyone is different. If you feel comfortable and confident then do it but if you’re doubting then stay on until you honestly think you can do it. Good luck.

[So...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Great advice from Waves and Nick. For me, my plan is to taper to 0 if need be. If I feel ready before then, I will step off or walk off earlier. I don't like to use the word "jump" though it is just a word. I want to walk off...into freedom from the evil beast that is Valium. Let us know what you decide to do Lucky. We have your back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ni...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Yeah when your down to zero it’s more of a walk definitely because you’ve got nothing left to accomplish but when you got mgs left I guess it’s more of a jump because you’re jumping off a certain mgs, but honestly idk. I just used jump because it was the common lingo I’ve been reading in this community. 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[So...] Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Agreed Nick, it is definitely w/d jargon...everyone says "jump" but now the word scares me so I say "walk off" - it's a brain thing for me.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Lu...] Posted February 24, 2019 Author Share Posted February 24, 2019 Thank you for all the input! I am probably going to keep dropping till I get closer to zero and walk.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Ni...] Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 It states in your signature that you’re down to 2mgs (congratulations btw) but when do you plan on walking off??? Do you have a date set or you just going as you feel it needs to be?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[So...] Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Me Nick? I am at 2.3mg, holding here for a week (did a big 20% cut...by accident) then slowly going down to 0...I have tried to ignore dates but it looks like I will be walking off sometime in June...hoping my summer is a good one, benzo-free.

[Ni...] Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Yup it was a question for you. Awesome June. Hope to hear so many positive stories. Good luck my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[bu...] Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 .025mg K would be 5mg Valium equivalent. Most folks do fine jumping at .5 Valium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[So...] Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Thanks Nick - hope to beat this Valium beast off my back! I want to spend the summer surfing real waves, not in a benzo w/d wave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Te...] Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Thank you for all the input! I am probably going to keep dropping till I get closer to zero and walk.... I think you've got the right idea. K is simply a different animal altogether, so going as low as you can is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
