Well, I'm gonna' add that if you insist on stopping medications, you'd better be prepared to change your diet radically and quickly; otherwise, you are going to be experiencing big changes in your feeling tone.
Many of the medications counteract some bad eating habits and so contribute to stability. It's best to drop those diet habits that are not good if you don't want to
take medications: stop alcohol, anything with caffeine, including chocolate, white flour products, beef, pork, and milk products. Go with more fish, lamb, take fish oil (for fatty acids including 3-6-9 fatty acids).
Drink plenty of water (purified) and eat a fresh salad daily. When the going gets tough, as it will, drink freshly sqeezed lemon water.
If it gets too rough on you, start back on your medications, at a lower dosage just
to get you stabilized.
If these don't help, PLEASE contact your psychiatrist and get help.
We aren't doctors, so we can't diagnose, but we can tell you what has worked for us in the past.
Take care and do keep in touch to let us know how you are.
