I'm just starting to level out and I know if I quit my meds that I'd be back in the same boat I was in before starting...subject to the whims of my depression and anxiety and PTSD and wild energetic spurts with insomnia...if not in worse shape!

The support I've found here re: taking meds and going to therapy has been incredibly helpful. Maybe some day I'll be able to get off meds, but this 3 day window of relative calmness and positive energy is not enough evidence that I'm all better and fine after 27 or so years of instability. Yes, since I was 3! This didn't appear overnight, so I doubt it will go away overnight either.

But I have nothing against those whose symptoms aren't bad enough or go into remission long enough to not need meds. That's great and sounds hopeful.
