FINALLY stopping the meds

I wont bore you with my history (for those of you who dont see my name and already know it!)

But, my consultant has finally told me to stop my ADs and anti-psychotics. It was decided I was 'non-responsive' months and months ago and this week he has decided to pull the plug. So now I just need to withdraw carefully and cope with whatever that brings up.

It feels good to be coming off them. God I have been through so many over the past few years. But I would be lying if I didnt admit to a tiny amount of fear of living without them......

(As for what he/we are going to do next? well that is probably another thread entirely...)

I do remember reading some of your posts, naswm. I'm glad you're feeling positive about this. I'm coming off meds at the moment too. It seems to take a while to adjust, but so far things are going ok for me. Keep posting and let us know how you're getting on. Take care.
