[Mi...] Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Hi all Holding at 11mg and had a good month. Then husband returned to work and I did not. Not sure if that is the reason but I had a whoosh that dropped me back into a horrific wave. Has anyone else had this while pausing their taper??? Need advice please. I am feeling very demoralised and upset that I cannot get off these meds x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[gr...] Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Yes You can have a bad wave during holding. It happens to me a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[2c...] Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Absolutely! It’s been part of the process for me. I ride it out and then decide when it feels right for my next cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s been part of the process for me. I ride it out and then decide when it feels right for my next cut. Recently I’ve had a wave of around 2 weeks. I’m in it now. I definitely think it is a result of my most recent cut. I eliminated my midday dose altogether. In the past I’ve had waves come out of nowhere though.

[gr...] Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 It all depends sometimes it lasts 2 weeks and sometimes 3 or longer. I just did a cut 13 days ago and I am still in pretty bad shape. Think I am going to hold for a while. My prior reduction before this one seemed to be going well and then after 2 weeks of doing good I got hit with a horrible wave which lasted for 5 weeks... Had no idea what brought it on. Everything about withdrawal is so unpredictable. It is such a guessing game. Good luck and hang in there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[gr...] Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Not sure how I am holding on. I guess I am just determined to get off of this poison. I guess I keep believing that it will eventually end.. Hang in there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
