Making recommendations like this across the board is dangerous. My wife’s psychiatrist had brought her up to 6 mg daily clonapin (which is a benzodiazepine). She decided she was tired of the emotional yo-yo it caused and flushed the remainder of her prescription. A few days later, I came back from taking the trash out to find her on the floor, gray and wheezing and totally unresponsive, having suffered from a serious seizure due to medication withdrawal. On waking up, she had serious amnesia (couldn’t remember the year, who the president was, etc.) for a couple of hours. Please don’t assume that anecdote == data, or that your personal experience with one medication is generalizable to other people and other medications.
