Ive quit my meds several times only to end up being put back on something different. There was one time where i asked to stop and just try therapy which didnt work but my doc allowed me to try. In the end i switched pdocs because the last time i quit my meds was because of a bad reaction i had with abilify and zoloft together and when trying to call my pdoc i never heard back from her. I eneded up being hospitalized and switched doctors and have been fairly stable since.
I was put on cogentin to counteract side affects while in the hospital and your right that it too comes with its own affects. It made my mouth soo super dry and in the end caused my gums to start changing color so i had to stop taking it.
