My very first cycle I used dbol with sust. I tapered off very slowly (over about 2.5-3 weeks), working down to 2.5 mg first thing in the morning. That may sound crazy, but I had had some experiences with Paxil- tapering off vs not, and decided to apply the same logic to aas. People jump up and down and swear tapering doesn't work etc. I always ask, why not? My opinion is that if it didn't work for you, you didn't do it right. You have to take advantage of a fast acting oral and you have to give your body enough time to take back over test production- which also means getting quickly to a sub-normal dose and then tapering off slowly from there.
Anyhow, I had the absolute smoothest transition, no crash, no significant weight loss. It was great. I love dbol for tapering off as it lasts just a few hours in your system and you can get it in very low doses. Plus, dbol gave me an overall feeling of well being, definitely a plus when coming off a cycle!
