Only stop with help: This medication may not be the best for you - but, don't stop w/out medical monitering - the risks are significant for some sensitive folk. You can refrain from the increase on your own, but have guidance for quitting. Consider psychotherapy as an addition or alternative to meds. If you are chemically sensitive, keeping drug use to a minimum can be a good idea. Best wishes - take care.
