Has anyone let their supply almost dry up then start pumping again?

Long story short, my baby spent 167 days in the nicu. He was exclusively breast milk fed until 5 1/2 months, when I couldn't keep up. I took it really hard and felt like I had completely failed him. We left the nicu breastfeeding and bottle feeding, and I fell into the convenience of a bottle. (He isnt a great direct breastfeeder- he really just wants to pacify and falls asleep) ANYWAY- i'm regretting my decision and trying to pump again. Is it even worth it??? I barely make an ounce a pump right now.
