Feeling slightly bad. Only one or two symptoms: mostly mental discomfort as usual in the recent months.
As I understand it, the 20% cut is still within reasonable bounds, whereas any further cuts will be much much harder. However, I am fortunate in that I can and should stay at this dose (40) for a long while.

Hi Wolf, holding for now sounds like a good idea. Once you feel yourself stabilize then you can think about tapering again. Thanks for the updates!
