Time dosages: It seems you are on the right track. At times, what we call the therapeutic range or "sweet spot" of these meds is a bit narrow. On the other hand, a withdrawal latency is not. Just try to time your medication by using reminders electronic or other cues. Moms or SOs are good at that. Remember?
