The best thing to do is taper off of it slowly to give your body and mind time to readjust. You can google tapering med tips but for instance you might cut the pill in half and do a week alternating one full pill a day and then alternate with a 1/2 pill the next day and do this for a week or two then do a week or two with just a 1/2 pill each day then cut the 1/2 pill in quarters and so on. It's best to taper rather than abruptly quit.
