Hi I haven't reduced my dose but from reading posts on here this does sound like increased side effects from reducing. It might have been better to reduce slower i.e. 2.5 mg at a time. Not sure as you have done 3 days on the reduced it might just be better to keep going and ride it out.
Keep in touch and let us know how you get on x

I definately think 40 was too high for me but now have to readjust to 30.
