Avoiding Deprenyl Withdrawals Options

[still]

I started taking deprenyl and I love the effects I am experiencing. More motivation, greater pleasure in activities, more confidence, slightly heightened sociability, perceived memory enhancement, and less fatigue. I am taking 1.25 mg per day.

However, as I dig more into the experiences of others I see that quite a few people experience pretty bad withdrawal symptoms, which are just the opposite: sadness, hopelessness, apathy, etc. Some experience this even on low doses, while at least one person reportedly took 7.5mg per day for long stretches and never experienced any withdrawal symptoms.

I do not want to have withdrawal symptoms. I won't be able to function. Is there a surefire way to avoid them? I see some people recommend taking weekends off, but will that really do any good considering the half-life of MAO type B inhibition is about 40 days?


Related question: What is the best way to research cognitive enhancers? My method basically comes down to googling any concerns that come into my mind and trying to find articles with scientifically backed claims. However I sometimes worry that I am going to miss something important. I feel like I should be doing some required reading that gives me a solid pharmacological knowledge base before experimenting. Is that necessary if I am really not all that interested in pharmacology, but more so just improving my mind and life?
