Has anyone been on meds for like ever without a break like other then maybe missing a couple days-week and stopped them??? So I’ve been digging into these groups to see if anyone has and I can’t find anything.  So basically I’ve been on meds since I was 12/13 and I’m 23 now. Maybe 3 or just over 3 weeks ago I had appt with my psych and it was fine whatever but he said he sent my meds over to my pharmacy as I ran out that day well long story short he didn’t, and hasn’t responded to any calls from me , the pharmacy or fax’s from the pharmacy.  I went thru awful physical WD’S bc I was stopped cold turkey,  maybe the first 5-6 days and now it’s just pure mental. So it’s been weeks right - at this point I’m committed to seeing what I’m really like without them in my body at all. But I read that it can take a month or more to feel like your “true self” if I’m being honest I think I’ll have to start taking them again but I’m holding on a little hope that it’ll be fine. 

Have you successfully stopped meds and not have to take them again? What was the process like ? Time frame of everything ? Did your mental health goto utter shit but even out once they were fully out of your system ? I’ll take all the advice I can get! I check in with my case manager 3x a week and I’m still undecided how long I’ll go before I take them again ( unless I get to the point of not being able to keep myself safe and it’s lowkey getting there lol) 

Meds I was on before giving to stop cold Turkey
