Yes. I just stopped taking it. It says you are suppose to slowly take yourself off of it. I did the opposite. I had no problem when I stopped taking it.

just from missing days before i’ve had a harder time sleeping and felt more sore, but from what i’m aware of i’m taking a decently high dose. definitely tell your doctor if you’re planning to get off of it though

I definitely have issues if I forgot or stop. I feel anxious and the pain is really difficult to manage. Harder to sleep.

I've been off for a week now. I only took a low dose. I've had no issues.
