You're preaching to the choir here, sister. I've had all these same thoughts. If he's going to quit taking the meds as soon as we take our thumb off of him, why not explore alternatives? At the very least we can avoid the rebound when he quits cold turkey. And maybe he could learn some coping skills along the way.
