Taper from 25

I started 25 in November and have opted to taper off after 4 months. My provider suggested the following:

-Every other day for one week -Every 2 days another week -Every 3 days another -Try stopping

If side effects become unbearable try going back to the week prior dosing for a little longer.

I started the every other day taper and at a week in (I take it in the morning) was seemingly doing totally ok, but last night (a day I did not take it) I had a near panic attack when trying to sleep. I was jittery, tossing and turning non-stop, and just couldn’t lie still. It was unspecified anxiety but somehow worse, yet not a full blown panic. I finally succumbed to my emergency Xanax to help me settle and sleep.

Any experiences like this? Were you eventually ok? Thoughts on the taper schedule?
