I know I don't know you but it's really not a good idea to stop your psych meds without consulation with a dr. I know this because I'm on psych meds, I may be on them for the rest of my life, who knows, and if I am it's fine. The brain is an organ, no different than your heart of your liver, if you needed drugs for those you'd take them, they carry no shame - neither do psych drugs. I agree, you're more likely to relapse if you stop taking them. One thing at a time :0)
