When I decided to quit, I decided to do a hard taper, meaning I started taking 1mg every other day for 5 days, than every 3rd day for the following 5 days. I felt a pretty harsh crash 3 days ago. Zero libido, depression, fatigue, difficulty concentrating.
I attribute this to the reckless hard taper I did. I imagine my crash would have been harsher if I quit cold turkey.
I am not back on fin at 0.25mg a day. I plan on staying on this for 3 weeks, then reducing it to .25mg every 2nd day for 2 weeks. then .25mg every 3rd day the following 2 weeks. then quit.
Has anyone had any experience with these slower taper routines? The horror stories I read on other sources scare me from quitting cold turkey. I dont yet know if what I feel is just temporary, and i'll be back to normal in 2 weeks cold turkey, or if I am in for a longer battle caused by PFS.
I have started the TotalMaleOptimization protocol. I am now eating pure paleo for 3 days, I will begine a juice fast in a couple of days, and then incorporate the rest of the components.
I would love some input, particularly about the value in tapering, WHILE starting the TotalMaleOptimization system.
This sucks, I am scared, i feel OK now, and actually had a good day, but I know shit will get hard sooner or later as I distance myself from this fucking poisonous drug.
