A member asked:
I am scared to start my taper of sertraline. i have been on it for 9 months and take 75mg daily. i am ready, but don't want discontinuation symptoms..

Taper under your: medical provider's supervision. Not everyone gets discontinuation symptoms. By tapering and not going off cold turkey - it greatly minimizes risk for discontinuation syndrome.
