I was feeling pretty stable on my meds and wanted to see if I could handle life without them. It didn't help that I wanted to get off the meds because I was feeling like I was 'giving in' or weak to take my meds. I know better than that now.

My psychiatrist told how to wean down (with the stipulation that if things didn't go well that I get myself back on them). I was into my third week of tapering when all of the sudden things went from sugar to shit in a matter of just a couple of days. So I'm back on my regular dose.

When do I go off? Who knows? I'm just glad to be feeling stable again.
