Does anyone else's mind play tricks on them...

[MissKristi]

Many times over the years I have gone off my medication for one reason or another. End up a mess and then go back on them. I know I am feeling good because of my medication but then I think I don't need the medication because I'm feeling good.

Anyone else go through this?

I do that all the time.You just have to tell your self the only reason your feeling better is because of the meds.

The medication is there for a reason - it helps to increase or balance your serotonin levels so that you can feel better. You may be able to talk to your doc and taper off them, but it is pretty normal to feel that you are ok now and to stop them. Just make sure you have full co-operation with your doctor. I'm the same, feeling great so I think about lowering the dose and realize I still need them, so you aren't alone
