This is all just some stranger’s opinion, but: don’t rush to get off it, or any medication that’s helping you; get yourself nicely situated and settled in your life. Panic has a nasty way of embedding itself in a cycle and being quick to return even after a good couple weeks or months—letting your mind and body fully acclimatise to stability and peace can do a lot of good for your long-term outcomes. In my experience, SNRIs like duloxetine/Cymbalta don’t do much “numbing” of feelings, and despite the article, longer-term discontinuation effects are relatively rare (and in any event tend to be more physiological than psychological).

There's no reason that shouldn't work, but if it didn't for some reason, it's not the biggest deal — my work proper is done offline, I just wouldn't be able to push any of it until I get connected again.
Also on Helix. I configure it a little bit but the OOBE is so good that it's only after some years that I've picked up little bits.
