- taper_tess — whats your rule for when a side effect means hold rather than push 19:08
- taper_tess — genuine question my rule: if a side effect is still there at day five, i hold. if it clears by day three, i step 19:11
- step_one_sian — came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful, i think 19:25
- taper_tess — a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored 20:20
genuine question my rule: if a side effect is still there at day five, i hold. if it clears by day three, i step
follow up coming down from 7.5 to 0.5, how bad is the appetite rebound
thats anecdote
not advice
too early imo
go slower
came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful, i think
end of week thing
pick a day and stick to it
i jumped a rung once to catch up after a supply gap and it was a bad week. would not repeat
split dosing has no trial behind it. people here do it and report on it, thats all
i hold for two months minimum before i decide a dose has stopped doing anything
the honest answer is that most of us are running protocols nobody has ever studied
a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored
