New Taper to 8.1 mg or (0.104g)

I did the next drop ... I have been feeling good and had no sign of withdrawal. I will be curious to see if the physical withdrawals start on day 3 and if they will disappear by Day 7. We will see.

I am a little bit nervous because of the other drug side affects. I was taking a beta blocker due to a valve problem I was born with. Beta blockers slow down the heart .. also help with anxiety. Now I am not on it .. and will go through this withdrawal. I am calling the GP Tuesday to inform him. Not sure if I want to go on another pill and risk more side effects.

I decided to list some books that I have liked on the subject of Antidepressants and Anxiety:

"The Anti-Depressant Fact Book: What Your Doctor Won't Tell You about Prozac, Zoloft, Paxil, Celexa, and Luvox: What Your Doctor Won't Tell You About ... the Other Newly Approved Psychiatric Drugs"
Peter R. Breggin

"Let Them Eat Prozac: The Unhealthy Relationship Between the Pharmaceutical Industry and Depression (Medicine, Culture, and History)"
David Healy

"When Panic Attacks" by David Burns Drug Free Anxiety Therapy

Dr Peter Breggin’s book - Your Drug May Be Your Problem: How and Why to Stop Taking Psychiatric Medications.
