Getting there... Finally down to 2mgs per day :-)

Been awhile since I posted.

Finally down to just 2mgs a day after 9 months of being on 10mgs per day.

Any advice on getting off the last 2mgs is greatly appreciated - I am in the UK - from the sound of it I don't know if there will be an option to go to the liquid solution, I think I'm going to have to do it with tablets.

Currently I take 1mg (half a 2mg tablet) at about 18:30, then the other half at bed time.

I'm ready to try 1.5mg per day but I'm going not sure how easy it will be to quarter the tablets accurately - has anyone had any experience of doing so, and has any useful advice.

Thanks and I hope everyone is doing OK x

    You have done really well, congratulations you should be proud of yourself.

    If you cut your tablet in half and then half again it will be fine. Its only a very small amount and you would still be taking the right amount.

    I was on Diazepam for many years and now totally free.

    Keep up the good work.

    With love Linda x
