i have tapered off on my own twice and am now tapering again. Hopefully, even though i have chronic pain, i can get to where i don't ever take it again. It's hard. Whey do i want to quit? Chronic acute constipation. Weight gain and hungry all the time, i want to live my life in reality, not high. I only take as prescribed, but is still too much for me. What are your reason? Have you tried to quit before?
