Thanks for that info Scratchappy. As you said some experience bad WD's and others don't. Although I think the people who go cold turkey on this sort of med are dicing with their health - it is an anti-convulsant at the end of the day!.. it just happens to have off-label use for anxiety. I imagine most people would be ok with a careful tapering down plan.

Maybe the best person to ask is your GP - he/she will have experience of having to taper people off this med.

All the best... keep us updated on your progress
