Reducing sertraline

Any experiences of how it went? how quickly you reduced? in how many steps etc. AND how did you feel? Did you feel the 'drop' on the first day you reduced? How soon did you stop completely?

I am currently on 100mgs a day and GP is thinking I could go down to 50mgs 'in the spring'. Ha, ha, being in Scotland means we may not get an actual spring. GP is quite dismissive of my concerns about dropping from 100 to 50 mgs in one go. I have previously felt very unwell when dropping ADs --- apparently I am not 'textbook typical' Grin

I've dropped from 100 to 50 but I dropped to 75mg for two weeks first.

And did you feel okay? I had dreadful experience before so am dreading it. But I've persuaded the GP I cannot do it till later, the autumn.
