I'm on 50 beads, reducing to 46 today after going cold turkey and reinstating on 15mg after 11 days on 0.
I'm counting the beads now, and suddenly I'm not sure. I'm counting 46 beads 3 times. Now, I have around 30 beads left from the capsule.
Should I:
Mix the remaining beads with the beads from the next capsule, or
Throw the 30 beads away, and only make 3 doses pr capsule?

Hi. I recently went from 120-90-60-30-0.
On day 11 of cold turkey, I reinstated 10mg.
I open the 30mg capsule, count the beads and split it in three equal doses for three days. The confusion happened today, when the capsule contained 15 beads less than the last one.
So...how does bead counting actually work?? Do I take the same amount of beads every day, or does it depend how many beads there are in the pill?
​
I thought i was going to stabilize on (lets say) 50 beads and then drop. But tapering further becomes hard when the total number always changes 🙃 help
​
Sorry if the answer is super obvious. My brain is not in a good spot 😅

Hey. There is so much good information on here, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.
​
What are the dangers of stopping too fast? I'm thinking about permanent damages or similar.
​
I got this for MS related back pain. It didn't help. I have tapered from 120-90-60-30 with 2/3 weeks intervals, and then 30-0 ten days ago. I know... I didn't know better and neither did my doctor.
Right now I'm feeling bad but better than two days ago. Withdrawal hit me hard as expected but I've only been on it for 6 months so I guess i should not complain.
​
Side effects when taking them was feeling depressed, sedated, my adhd medication stopped working, brain fog, weight gain (15kg in 6 months). I have lost control over my kids activities, my own and their doctors appointments and so on. The only feelings I've had for months is despair and sadness. It made me indifferent to food, health and medication dosages, gave me sexual dysfunction... the list is so long. I got it for MS related back pain. It didn't help. And it took away the effects of my other pain meds.
I decided to quit before my family and I took permanent damage from this.
​
But now reading through posts, I'm scared of permanent damage either way.
​
Im currently feeling flu-like full body aches, NAUSEA like I'm going to throw up if I dont lay down. Fatigue. Headache. Brain zaps are much better but a little worse than yesterday. And I just feel really ill. Hard to explain. I'm getting nervous.
​
After all this, I'll repeat my question 😅 what are the potential dangers of doing it this way? Am I going to be ok? 😳

I'm new to this. My 7 y/o son got this as a gift in february. She hates me, but I'm learning so much from all your posts. Perlite and other stuff gets delivered tonight, but i just noticed these baby leaves under the other leaves. Should i do anything about it? They can't possibly survive under there, can they?
