Tappering off - pace?

Posted by hansi555 on May 21, 2010, at 11:18:43

Hi all
I am on 110 mg of Nortriptyline, 10 mg of Lexapro and 12 mg of Remeron.
I take 35 mg Nort + 10 mg Lex in the morning and 75 mg Nort + 12 mg Rem in the evening.
I have been on Rem + Lex for 26 months and Nort for 20 monthts.
I am going to stop taking these meds very soon.
I would like to do a fast tappering rather than a slow one - even though all "experts" talk about that slow is much better.
I am afraid that a slow tapper would eventually make me give up the project. I have not suffered a lot of side effects during start up of the meds, my only issues now are dry mouth and gained weight.
How would you suggest to do this? I have my vacation in July and will use some of it for this purpose.
I am taking fish oil pills and exercise regularly.
All views welcome!
