med taper

Today is day 6 of Savannah being on 1/2 a pill.  (12.5 mg/day)  She has been more weepy/moody this week, but maybe another week at 1/2 a pill per day will help her even out. 

We want her to get by on the lowest effective dose, but when this is working, I hate to mess with it further.  I know I should, though.  I just don't want to see her 'crash' & hit the depressed/wanting to die/constant panic attack thing that she had prior to meds.  I think I'm going to give her another week of this lower dose & if she continues to have no struggles, we might go to 1/2 a pill ever other day.

Boy...this is tough stuff.
