@nimgimli@gamepad.club I'm currently in the opposite position. I stopped taking mine about a decade ago, and while I could handle life without them? Everything feels so much more manageable WITH them. Knowing I can stop with little ill effect makes me feel better about using the crutch right now.
(I am on the lowest dose, which also helps.)

@Krikket@mindly.social I have my annual physical in a few weeks & might talk to my doc about just trying something else. Or maybe to back to the 5 mg. As soon as I got down off that 10 mg dose I started doing my walking and going places and being more social and active. On the 10 mg I was content but never actually DID anything. I THOUGHT about doing a lot of things but sitting on the couch watching YouTube was SO much easier :) Course now I'm even MORE of an asshole than I was when on the meds!
