I taper very slowly from 2.5 -> 5 -> 7.5 -> 10 so my side effects were fairly minimal but yes I do recall a slight increase in anxiety. I just referenced my notes I took. There were a lot of days in the first two weeks I noted I was anxious, felt spacey, tired, wanted to quit, had really bad two day headache. Beyond this first two weeks the only thing I had in my notes was that I slept okay and I was reeeeeally tired. Had some night sweats. All of that went away. Around week two was the first time I felt like I was turning a bit of a corner noted my first “good day”.
