Hey Robert, I know U have been busy and I hope all is going a little better for u.

I m struggling a little here at 2.25.. been on this dose for 2 days and i dont know if its because i didnt completly level out at 3mg or if this is normal? Just wanted to update u on my situation and get any input or further instructions on what to do?

I want this more then anything so Im pushing through it best as possible but I just wanted your insight befroe I did anything? I figured this is normal but this is the first real test so far...I have the typical w/d symptoms and im just hanging on it feels like...

I dont want to sound like a basketcase coz i know i can muster through it but the question is should I ? or would u suggest in taking a sliver or am i still on to high of a dose to be even thinkin about slivers?

I just want to make sure im doing exactly what u want coz thats the promise i made to u and myself.

Thats all for now... U r in my prayers and hope you r feeling a little better. Talk soon and thx again for being there for me and all the others.

God bless.

God bless.

tobi, i don't like to speak for robert, but i think it is a safe bet he would say to take a sliver if you feel this bad. not a big deal, or major setback. the imprtant thing is to be plenty comfortable right now while trying to get stable at this current dose. just be sure to pick up and start another 4 days at your current dose tmrw. a sliver is usually .25mg - .50mg. you should feel better. if not for some reason check back to see if robert thinks you should change something. have a good weekend.

Thank U so much...I want to know what Robert thinks as well but I dont want to bother him...I mean, I know hes dealing with his own stuff right now and i feel bad for buggin all the time with new threads...But i also said i wouldnt do nothin without him knowing first...so i wasnt sure what to do...

I had read his other posts to ppl and saw that he had wroten take a sliver if needed but i wasnt sure if that was only for ppl under 2mg or somethin...

I know u have been through this so it makes me feel better just knowing that u said i could probaly take a sliver.

I will double check with robert when he replys but in the mean time i think i will follow your lead... I just hate being annoying...

Thank u for your suggestion, it means alot. U have a good weekend as well.
God speed to whatever u r trying to overcome in your life . and God bless.

hey tobi, just so you know, cause im a little ahead of you,
its usually around day 3 we feel a bit of symptoms, but if you push on through by day 4 or 5 they settle.
thats what i have found anyway.
i have been doing more than 4 days on each level, thats just me, but definately round day 3 is when i feel something, if im going to.

just someone elses opinion. ok dude.
hope that helps

tobi .... I hate to see you use slivers at the dose you're at. You are really better off to push on through it. If it means a sliver or a relapse it's a no-brainer but only under those circumstances. And I would hold it to .25mg increments if ABSOLUTELY necessary. Hang in there my friend. You can do this. You're in my prayers. God bless.

Thx u for your advice...I never ended up taking the sliver..I wanted to wait until you replyed...im glad i found the strength to wait coz now i know...I wont relapse..not now..i much rather feel like ********...I feel that way because of the support that i have recieved...its because of everyone here and the support im recieving here at home... I so glad to have met u...i know im repetitive but i cant help it...U guys are all so great!!!

I will keep u updated...I think I might need a day or too more on 2.25mg but who knows for sure?? I will see how i feel on day 4..

Thank u Robert U r in my prayers as well!!! I pray everyday that God relive your pain.

God Bless and talk soon.

Tobi ..... I'm always glad if I can help someone. You've got a good attitude and you'll end up clean I'm sure. Just keep focused and remember this is a process not an event. It just takes a little time. But you only have to do this once if you do it right. Thanks for the prayers. I appreciate that. God bless you too.
