I've been on meds for about 10-11 years and about 4-5 of those I've been on 100mgs of seroquel. 

I don't want to get into every sobby detail of my life but I will say that I've come A LONG WAY. I once thought I'd be dead by 30 (I'm 35) I recently graduated from college with honors and moved to a new city which I really love. After being estranged from my mother for 8 years (who was the reason for my bpd but I don't want to get into that ) we have been slowly mending things and she even purchased a new wardrobe for me so that I have new clothes for my new job which I really love (finally closing the door to working in retail for good 😩🙂) 

Anyways with all of these good things after lots of thought  I have decided that I have gotten the benefits of being on medication and I'm ready to get off them. My dr lowered my 100mg dose  to 50mg last Thursday. On Sunday I was sick with a cold and had a fever so I did the reg stuff one is supposed to get better. Today I noticed that while I'm no longer coughing, my BODY still feels sickly. I'm hardly eating and I just feel a bit out of it and a lil nauseous. I also am getting slight chills 

Could these be symptoms or withdrawal? I see my dr on the 25th so she can lower my dose to 25mg (after a month of being on 50mg) 

Are there things I can do to help the withdrawal symptoms? I just started my new job and I do not want to fuck that up. Today I left early because I was not feeling well but I'm in the clear because my boss remembered how much I was coughing the other day. I am still working my retail job part time along with my new 9-5 till I move into my new apartment in late feb so I need to keep it together for this tiring schedule. Once I'm off this I'll only be on a low dose of aderall but that's it and I'm really excited but scared.
