Default HELP WEAN ME OFF GEODON!!!

I AM COMING OFF GEODON AND HAVE READ HORROR STORY AFTER HORROR STORY ABOUT HOW TOUGH IT IS TO COME OFF THIS DRUG. MY PSYCHIATRIST SAYS MY DOSAGE (40mg) IS LOW ENOUGH THAT I CAN JUST STOP COLD, WHICH SOUNDS HIGHLY IRRESPONSIBLE TO ME. IS THERE ANYONE WHO HAS SUCCESSFULLY WEANED THEMSELVES OFF THIS HORRIBLE DRUG? CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO DO IT WITHOUT GOING INSANE. THANK YOU!

You seem to be on a relatively low dose but I don't think you should just stop cold turkey.Can you take it every other day???You need to find out what is the best way for you to wean off this med.I would tryeither dropping to 20mgs everyday or 40 every other day......Good luck.....Dave
