i decided to stop all my meds. i was on lithium, trileptal and zoloft. i have been on meds for the last 8 years (since diagnosis). since then i've gotten my degree, started and then stopped a career, had 2 children (now 3 and 16 months) and gotten married (thus inheriting a stepdaughter full time). i feel that i don't know myself anymore or my symptoms. i weened myself off per my doc's instructions, i am only on 1/2 dose of zoloft until next week and then i'm done. i naturally turned to alcohol almost immediately (i know that is not the best decision so don't write back berating me for that), but i can't stop crying either.
does anyone have any advice on what i can expect next and what if anything i should document or take into consideration to tell my doc. i know i will probably be back on something eventually. i guess i wanted to be free and normal for a little while and i wanted to reset myself since i've had so many life changes and i feel like a lab rat w/ all the med changes. i want to stop eveytihng, clean out my system and start over.
Logical or dangerous?
