Hey Tish

Thats great.......I am really pleased for you. With regards to the meds do you think your current stability is as a result of med compliance and that the mix you have is so obviously the right one for you.

If it was to do with meds like benzos and you are not experiencing any anxiety or sleeplessness well, yes, I would definitely remove them from the equation. But if it is the hard core staples, like the anti psychotics and the anti depressants, I would maybe ask about a dose reduction but unlikely stop them outright.

I definitely wouldnt do this on my own, only on the go ahead of a professional and then a taper programme would ensue.....dont go cold turkey.

I dont know, its a tough one, because really it is hard to discern whether your current good fortune is as a result of the correct talk therapy and an excellent pharmacological intervention or just your natural progression in life whereby BPD symptoms do disappear naturally........believe it or not this does happen.

I am in a similar situation and have got rid of the anti anxiety and sleeping medication as I dont need them, but I have kept my anti psychotic for the paranoia effects like you say, and have also continued a low dose anti depressant as I dont want to fall back into that trap.

Hugs to you dear Tishie
